Snowing tonight ~ whispering, luminescent, dazzling, romantic... Air misty, mellow ~ wind calm, serene, Sights outside blurred, indistinct through the hazy window glasses, Rooftops getting blanketed with white laces ~ A picturesque winter wonderland, Treetops embellished with silver ornaments, grasses caressed by soft touches of snow, My heart is with you, Craving for the profound tenderness of your embraces ~ If only you knew. At the first demure light of dawn, open my eyes, It's only you I think of. In between numerous mundane chores, Multitude of unavoidable responsibilities, Hours of running meaningless errands, I ponder about you. At the end of an arduous day, when retiring to bed, who fills my heart with the warmth of magical dreams? You ~ the twinkle of your eyes, the passionate soft kisses~ envelop the breath of this forlorn damsel, If only you knew! Sometimes a mysterious dream may wake you up at midnight, You wonder why! I muse and create, pour my deepest thoughts, My longings and desires, pains and agony, Spend sleepless nights until my dreamy eyelids droop in slumber ~ If only you knew!

It's a great romantic poem. All your poems, whichever I have read, have the serenity of their own. One can learn so many things about the words you use and the way you use them. I do learn. This too is a very beautiful work.

" I ponder about you. At the end of an arduous day, before retiring to bed, who fills my heart with the warmth of magical dreams?" Very nice. There was a time when poetry was poetry. You got it here.
