The Dream and the Song Live On and On

When I’m in glee of your alluring smile
As you gaze merrily ebullience of dawn
Caressing blush of emerging sunrise
Scintillating fervor upon magenta arc
Whispering gingerly to budding revelry
Strolling in morning’s flowery breeze
Creating your own moments of intimacy
Ignoring plea of my romantic appeal,
If only I could be that spectacular sun
Whose arrival you await so longingly;
May be, I too, can live in your dream.

When somber moods reign the night
And darkened clouds shroud horizon
I hear the clamor of dissonant vibes
Speaking boldly, yet saying nothing
Awaiting silently for glimmer of light
Exuberating luminance of galactic arena
Where, in its adoration you feel lost,
If only I could be that brightest of stars
Twinkling for you from heavens above
And touch like it does your fervid aura;
May be, I too, can conquer your heart.

When face of your winter turns harsh
Thrashing snowfall in freezing storms
You seek relief from autumn’s reveries
Reminiscing in zeal of crimson prairies
Nostalgic in colors of passionate alacrity
Rejecting emptiness of frozen vagaries
Eyeing instead for enchanting greenery,
If only I could be your spring’s ballad 
In lyrics that arouse pulses of desires
Elevating harmony in rhythms of harp;
May be, I too, can seduce your song.

Sometimes you tell me, I’m your dream
Sometimes you say, you own my heart
Sometimes you vow, you are my song--
As the dream and the song live on and on…

If she loves you, she probably sees you as the sun and stars, Vijay. And I love the way you describe the transition of seasons. Even after we lose loved ones, their songs can live in our dreams. Beautiful, my friend! Best wishes in the contest. Now I have another fave. Hugs, Carolyn

I love this so... the caressing blush (such a inspiration to me)... whispering gingerly (a caress that whispers intimately)... Thrashing snowfall (echoes the truth of snow white beauty)... to me, this poem speaks of miracles and moonbeams, intimacy and intricate plans. It is a welcome breath of fresh air. I enjoyed it tremendously. God bless you always
