This Poem Won'T Make You Cry

I have written- a poem 
That won’t make you cry, within 
Whose tender words spell 
The magic of love, 
Scented with honey, from 

A fluttering god: a gift- 
For thee, ‘cos this poem o’ mine
Is drawn from thy beauty!

I’ve made my heart rhyme, 
For the air not to die 
Before thy sight, 
‘Cos your charm, like crystal 
Blue sea imitating ocean, where 

Waves ripple, like notes 
Of dancing evening fire, 
Proclaiming thy desire!

Cry not, ‘cos my love will not fade 
Like a vapor and waft as a smoke, 
Though to death we all go, but for 
Us, not tonight, my dear!  Fear not, 
For in this muse- I will rest 

My aroma, ‘cos it was thee-
Who made me bloom, like a flower
On a rock, feasting on thy sacred wine!
