Line Gauthier Poet Rhyme

Bollywood Charm

Exotic perfumes opulent 
Hibiscus and jasmine sentient
Charming flute and sitar entice
Indian chants undulating
Heads pivoting eyes inviting
Warm smiles reminiscent of spice
Voices that throw you in a trance
In a most voluptuous dance
Timing of twirling so precise
Long black waves of ebony hair
Swaying through the sumptuous air
Sweet frangipanis caressed thrice

Exotic perfumes opulent
Most seductive graceful movement
Colorful sari paradise
Hand caresses so alluring
Romantic moves hypnotizing
Expressive beguiling eyes slice
Through melodic extravagance 
Beckoning magic’s elegance  
Playing on heart strings that suffice
Such flair as spry as pure prayer 
Let your soul embark if you dare
Swirls of sensuous bounty twice 

Hibiscus and jasmine sentient 
Charming flute and sitar entice
Exotic perfumes opulent

Subimal Sinha-Roy May 31, 2018 at 1:28 AM You have described the Bollywood movie scene so nicely, Line. These dances are called "number items" of the film. having no connection to the story. Line Gauthier May 31, 2018 at 8:23 AM My favourite film is The Very Best Marigold Hotel - it's probably not considered a true Bollywood film but I just can't get enough of that movie.
