Panorama of Passion
In seamless sky up above the wasteland of my wan life,
clumps of cumulus cloud hovered rainless all the while.
In their smoldering shadow a desert spawned in my heart,
and at its fringe in the oasis of yearning you became a lake.
In its tranquil depth you drowned the dregs of my despair,
torrents of fervid joy flowed from you in my depression.
The beguiling breeze made ripples of smile on your face,
where in the moonshine I was reflected in sensory shimmer.
My cerulean sky dissolved in your sensuous azure serenity,
sunburst colors of my dawn painted the panorama of passion,
the hues of my dusk spread emotive spectrum on your visage,
where had the flight of ecstasy taken me, you didn’t know.
The desert wind could never desiccate your lacustrine beauty,
I would unfollow the transient trails of mirage to reach you.
In diaphanous night on arms of your moonlit shore I would lie,
and in your ambrosial essence I would submerge my soul.
