Epitome Of Elegance


          down 
the desiccated spine 
          of 
the sepia valley
                    scouring 
the serrated slopes 
of the jagged rocks
you disappeared 
like a swan
                   serenading 
on the last lap
        of 
furtive flight
with winsome wings 
       of 
raptured rhythm
                   harmonized 
      with
the summer breeze
                        rippling
through the still shadow 
of silence
                   sequestered 
in the thicket

mid-summer rains
        poured 
from cloudburst sky
        flowed 
in the vivacious valley
with the current 
of charismatic torrent
cascading dulcet
        down 
the sculpted face 
        of 
the rock cliff
                    reclined 
forming a lively lattice 
of animated 
                    waterfall
of designed figure
        where 
in an imagery
                    ingrained 
in fantasy       
I saw you return 
an angel
of fluid flair
                    framed 
as epitome
of elegance
                    ethereal
