Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Verse

Iris New -Win

To me, yea, Iris is invisible, 
the scent of yours all pervading.
Behold your face all-rich, 
When I close my eyes.

Wordsworth's daffodils to me, 
Membrane of the eyes, 
that gives light to me, 
Light that misleads the morn.

You are the genus iris, 
with sword-shaped leaves, 
Showy colored flowers, 
displaying rainbow colors.

Your eyes green and deep, 
Deeper than the depth, 
Stilled waters at even, 
those eyes, break of the day.

I see a heart full of love, 
with the gentleness of a dove.
Feel in her eyes March, 
September in her heart.


Dr. Ram Mehta

It is a magnificent work, one I would be proud to have written. But, since you are the fortunate on to produce this marvel, I salute your poem and talent.
