Mellifluous Muse
In my hunger,
I saw a hallucination of heaven.
From afar, visions of a golden glow,
lustered, lingering above a crowded crossroad.
This aura of agave aromatherapy,
left an amorous aroma of romantic ruminations,
so I became a devotee, desiring her divinity.
But, such was her evanescent existence,
those effervescent eyes now seem ephemeral.
Adrift in the angst of absence,
I feel the lament of

Mellifluous - First Place Contest Winner
In a world of mellifluous dreams,
Where whispers embrace in soft moonbeams,
A moiety of verses, murmuring in rhyme,
Revealing the secrets of an arcane time
Nemesis, the muse, with susurrous breath,
Weaving tales of love and death,
Her voice, a sigh, a melancholy strain,
As she plucks the strings with a gentle domain.
Ensnared in the web of her melodic spell,
Lost in

Mellifluous Universe
Sunlight morphs into the elixir moonlight
dusk wearing a sequined black silken shawl.
And the daylight truckled the way to twilight,
for embracing the shadows, captivating all.
Nightingale heralding serenades to usher night.
A soothing symphony of cynosure sway,
Empyreal cerulean sun, fanned by the moon.
Finding riddles while gently a lissome display,
haphazardly scattered amid a sea swoon.
Shadows glide in a lithe and untamed way.
Thrusting

Tuned Mellifluous
Knumbed by her beauty
I stood in the fast beleif
she'd refuse my suggestion
of suppering in evening
she stood proud and
assured that I would
beg her whilst her friends
observed to sneer and smerk
I stood unattractive to either
but her gentle kindness
allowed me her person
when evening speaks
to the dawn
might the entanglements of
lovers speak to the night
might the crooning of

What They Don'T Know
What you don't know, that I know.
My voice so mellifluous
Presenting me as emasculate,
As if I am heaven's perfect candidate.
Ohh they don't know,
As they clothe me in pure perfection.
Only if they pay attention,
To my speech rather,
They'll see a different dimension.
And not that I blather,
Course in my other perception,
I call it

Mellifluous
Music to my ears, so mellifluous
is the nightingale's song, ambiguous,
Give ear to her notes, they float on the breeze,
swirling through the air, they're tuned to appease;
I dance to her song, so mellifluous,
She's sitting somewhere, inconspicuous,
Her aria drifts down and I’m entranced,
In the stillness, her whistling sounds enhanced;
I hear her melody, mellifluous,
and I forget all my

Mellifluous
mellifluous and mesmerizing
a distant melody I hear...
melting my soul softly
with its mellow magic
a flute tune so soothing
sweet and symphonic
transcendental
awakening my spirit
moulding my dampen mind
into a clay diya
spreading love and light -
a light to the realization of
the meaning of my mundane existence
as I close my eyes and listen
to this mystic blissful tune
even the Gopis, peacocks,

Mellifluous
a mellifluous trickle had given way
to licking her wounds in silent arrest
of the honey flow of her beautiful mind
synapses clotted on stagnant display
like burnt marshmallows on a fire
charcoaled pen roasted at her core
incinerated thoughts feeling briquettes
blackened in a cold cauldron of fear
all that was left was her amber necklace
a shrunken talisman reduced to a token
tight

Mellifluous
Mellifluous her soothing voice
Each word sugar-coated
Like sweet honeyed candy
Luscious and mellow
In her gentle dulcet tones
Flowing sweetly and melodiously
Lyrically euphoniously
Unlike his loud flamboyant tones
Oh such vociferous sounds emit
Until he heard her mellow words
Smoothly ~ gently her voice doth calm

Mellifluous tune
Utterly sweet, melts my heart
Spills love, makes me swoon
It comes from where - I know not
Charming and soothing - an art!

Mellifluous Poems
even though may be brief
had been short sigh of relief
from sadness and grief
all over and done
guilty they had found the one
punishment upon
to court would embarge
what he received was a large
sentence based on charge
had started to search
for great and glorious church
with trees oak and birch
God gave me a job
much fruit salad

His
flute tune
harmonic
flowing gently
melting every soul in ocean of love ~
Enthralled, her deep eyes closing, mind floating
and dissolving
in its soft
rhythmic
charm
This is inspired by the story of Hindu God Lord Krishna and Goddess Radharani..
