I Let You Pass By

Golden leaves swing with breeze merrily
Hearing cheery music written by your winds
Enjoying beamy warmth of budding sunlight
Awaiting your arrival to enter my daydream,

Your sunny rays made my misty land fertile,
Growing seeds I sowed into vibrant yields
Swaying back and forth in graceful style
Emulating movements of your smiley eyes,

There I linger where you roam in my fields
Asking you to become my jewel of serenity
Finding comfort in presence of your allure
Encouraged by your vibes emitting grandeur,

Soon as my day turns into twinkling twilight
Becoming my vision of our romantic setting,
Your whispers are heard by the starry night
Alerting me to divinity of supernal blessing,

That's when you arrive, bringing lover's joy
Possessing virtues of glamorous enterprise.
Mesmerized by your beauty I'm hypnotized, 
Frozen in place speechless, I let you pass by.

My gifted friend, what a beautiful, excellently written piece! It's so amazing that we let opportunities for love pass us by. In my younger days, I was shy and didn't think some of the attractive guys would even give me a second glance. Many years later, I was surprised to learn, from a couple of them, that they had been interested in me, but afraid to tell me fearful of rejection! Best wishes and hugs. Pandita
