Anisha Dutta Poet Sonnet

The Sculpture

THE SCULPTURE 
                           
      Dream girl carved by Pygmalion: Sculpture.
      He framed her face with charm of bright Moon light      
     His painful passion brought pearly luster
     glistening on her wide eyes in delight.

     Superfine cut by chisel with skilled stroke
     designed curves of body on perfection.
     On each point emerald emotion broke.
     Elegant statue stood on completion.

     Sculptor desired the statue as his wife.
     His yearning tingled on earnest prayer.
     How could the statue be blessed by life!
    Her eyes blinked, she smiled at her creator.

     Statue turned Galatia in rapture.   
     Dream girl carved by Pygmalion: Sculpture.
