amour

dear

oh Dear –
it’s an evening of amour,
experienced alone, behind the open
windows- a view for the world
abstaining from desire, I disrobe
the words, and let them ablaze
on
the tip
of
my tongue.

dear

oh Dear –
let’s flow, let’s blow, let’s sing,
let’s waltz around in our skins,

*तू स्पर्श है तो मैं एहसास,
लब से जो तू छू ले तो मैं विलाप,
तू पुष्प जो है तो मैं  भँवरा हूँ.

let’s flow, let’s blow, let’s sing,
let loose control.

in dots and dashes,
I sigh, my last word,
in dots and dashes.

dear

oh Dear –

*you are the touch, I am sensation,
you are the kiss, I am that moan,
you are the flower and I, a bumble-bee.

    I love the phrasing of these words. Fine writing.

  2. This is luscious….it would go perfectly with the prompt at Imaginary Garden with Real Toads this week. I love this, in particular: “you are the flower and I, a bumble-bee.”

    What a beautiful photograph.

    This is my favorite part of your poem:

    “abstaining from desire, I disrobe
    the words”

    I really like the encoded section as well.

  5. I agree with Bjorn that some of the best moments are played alone. Sometime we must make the most of the company we have…and sometimes it is only ourselves.
