Dream Date
In a quiet restaurant of the town,
I waited apprehensive for a while,
when suddenly the door opened,
and I saw a floating figure enter.
She came like a bird on wings of ebullience,
sat with poise on the chair close to me.
I could smell the enticing scent she wore,
saw a lone mole on her chin’s beauty spot.
Time was ticking slowly in my nerves,
I perceived my senses on the edge.
I drank a glass of iced water,
that seemed melted from glacial silence.
The lights were romantically diffuse,
the air was filled with fervently soft music.
On my first date I felt being in the fairyland,
as I woke up from the entrancing dream spell.
The aura of her flamboyance charmed me,
as I soared enthralled on cloud nine.
Her angelic smile allured me back,
and I gave her the red rose I brought.
As in her silken voice she said “thank you”,
my shy kiss landed on her beauty spot.
I whispered “glad you came, but a bit late”,
she said “early for the next date”, and smiled.
