In Praise of My Beloved

(THIS POEM IS FOR THE CONTEST - BEAUTY)

Oh my beloved!
Golden gulmohars bloom in abundance
where your dainty feet dance in delight.
The whiff of our love drifts in the air 
intoxicating the buzzing bees unabashedly 
to feel the fragrant faces 
of radiant roses,

The mirror of the pristine pond
fondly holds shining reflections of our togetherness ,
The mother-white pearl of passion peeps
from the oyster of your smile.
Your dimpled cheeks are to me 
the twin whirlpools of laughter.
Monsoon clouds of your dark damp tresses 
hang over your stripped shoulders,
In you glowing gaze I see
thousand lamps alit in the temple of our love!
Your wet lips gleam in ecstasy
with the lightning of our stolen kisses!
Minty flavour of your mouth
still lingers in my breath.
Bewitched by your beauty
the porcelain moon turns pale 
sighing with envy,
and my poetic dreams
come true.
Oh my beloved!

The imagery is strong in this one and I love some of the phrases you used which I thought was a compliment to the flow and the overall theme of the poem.Loved it!
