My Dream Date

How I weave fancies around my dream date
If time could satisfy some of my whims,
I would, like a sprightly fawn, hop and jump
Jubilant, jocular, joyous, and juvenile!
      
Between the departing day and the descending night
If it suddenly rains as a bolt from the blue
With no umbrella to shield our heads
How I wish to walk with you
My hands twined around your waist,
With no one else but only you and me.

When the sun hides behind the Western ghats
Bleeding red and waxing pale
How I wish to ramble hand in hand
Along the seashore under the canopy of the sky
Sharing silent thoughts and counting the waves
Lost in our private world, just you and me!

On a bright clear day when the Southern Bay 
Like a voluptuous maid lies draped in blue
And its placid surface dotted with sailing boats,	
How I wish to get into one 
And drift afar to some unknown destination
With no one else but you and me

Somewhere in a sheltered nook,
Screened from the buzzing crowd with a river winding by
And the clear waters snoozing on the white sand,
In a small, sequestered cottage,
Where nightly winds flute on the windowpanes
How I wish to spend a night with only you and me

There as we stand in a tight warm embrace,
When your hot breath falls on the nape of my neck,
And as you pant with passion and call me ‘My love’
How I wish to get enrobed in your mystery
And sail down to the abyss of an unknown experience
When nobody else matters, but only you and me!

Valsa, you've written a beautiful and profound poem! This poetry was already lovely, but your rich imagery elevated it to new heights. While softly wandering in the arms of one's lover, one might happily recollect lovely and passionate memories. I truly enjoy how you portray the attraction that emotions crave.

"I would, like a sprightly fawn, hop and jump Jubilant, jocular, joyous, and juvenile!" -- Really just too many marvelous images in this poem to pick out a few and do it justice. Original and perfect! "Somewhere in a sheltered nook, Screened from the buzzing crowd with a river winding by" -- absolutely enchanting! I think you could have a winner here.

Lovely dream date. I had one once but my mother was against it as I had not yet qualified for a job. Your poem is full of emotion and imagery. Well done dear Valsa.
