From Your Smile

Dense darkness
under the tree
a deluge of your
smile where
appetite seated
in white flowers
Fragrance
reaches out
even here

my face and eyes
mesmerized
look in the mirror
my hands restive
in pursuit for
full moons well-set
on the smooth bed
with just the curves
in front of my eyes
enough to make the
well swell deep down
the sea


This seabed is
a weird stuff
immediately
springs up
sun flowers 
and dandelions
seeking sunlight
if not allowed
doesn't hesitate to
plunder the sun
destroying the
churches

moons quiver
feet trembles
iris aflame
looks spread
magnetic waves
in the smile
the inebriated Nile
irresistible

darkness still
prevails there
under the tree

It's a gift to
live with such a
dark corner
which when needed
invites hundreds of
glowworms

Under the green
light
hundreds gondolas
sail on wide eyes
