Lone Lane Lighted Up
Untamed ebony hair cascaded,
some swirled in sensual squall,
some laced the lattice of lust
on your ivory forehead canvas,
engraving the contours of charm,
configured the captivating last visage .
The dove eyes danced in the blue sea
on the melody waves of fervor,
the eyelids fluttered with butterfly
with image of your last dream on its wings,
floated in the folding air of yearning,
lest it drifted away in wilderness wind.
The crimson cheeks suffused to shine
with the radiance of blooming rose,
spread the seductive scent in zephyr,
caressing me with the touch of longing,
created the colors of glowing glamour,
put on your last portrait I painted.
The rose buds unfurled on luscious lips
with the lilac luster of sunburst dawn,
the mesmeric allure sparkled
like pearls of dew on petals of pink rose,
flashed the spark of your last smile,
lighting up the lone lane of my memory.
