Your frivolous smiles greet the night jasmin
Moonlit sky plays the heart flute
The darkness writes bright verse

Jasmin said yes to the
                     June starlit proposal-
      Jazz was playing as she
               joined him in complete awe-
               Joy surrounded lovers-
          Jade was her favorite
                       jewelry...she said yes.

She would keep her tears in a crystal and silver perfumer, 
along with jasmin and rose water.

Whenever she assisted weddings,
she was perfumed with a few drops.

Drops of grief disguised as joy.
Drops of virginal scent perfume; 
but in fact, tears spilled.

By the luck of the bride
by her own luck....

Hills and valleys and curvy roads
Peeking houses behind tall oaks

Morning sun’s tender rays
Whistling gust’s soft touches
 
Musical dialogues of chirpy birds
Air-dances and rapid flutters

Fragrant stars of Jasmin flowers
Flourishing marvels of vivid colors

Wind chime’s calming tune
Amusing walk energizing the mood...

May you flourish under a tree that grasps you tight 
May all your dreams flow out aright,
The Jasmin flowers dazing away 
Dancing to the fragrance all the way.

God humbly giving you everything with a blow
That fill's you up with a hole,
Grape wines swaddling up your bones
The path full of stones. 

The grape wines stopping your way
To never let you see all the way,
The sweetness attracts your heart
The only thing that you desire is right underneath your path....

Gleaming stars in a Chinese percaline teacup
around its rim golden dragons loop the loop.

If the vessel had been larger
a trillion lights could have shone
from that Jasmin infusion.

A young man could get drunk,
a mere youth could lose his mind
looking upon the delicate hand
that offers it to him.

Green orient eyes smile
knowing the spell
will work then and yet later.

A much older man
drinks tea from a mug,
a memory still engendering
a fragrant light-headedness....
