In the solitude of the drowsy night
Platinum fingers of moonlight
Filter through the flimsy drapes of modesty
To caress lovers wrapped in rapture
The golden honey of love drips
As saccharine kisses from eager lips
As the hands roam to feel the warm satin
Of skin blushing with passion
And the eyes are closed in ecstasy to savour
Delicious delight of  the sensuous journey
As a juvenile innocence blooms
Into wanton desire in the meads of love
On the ebon pall of nightfall
The stars are like studded diamonds sparkling
Like dewdrops on the soft and redolent lips
Of the rose on its thorny throne
And beads of sweat that glow
Resplendent on the silken alabaster skin
Words of love pour out as a delirious downpour
Of raindrops that satiate the parched earth
The fragile silken threads of love
Are braided with cords of passion
To be strengthened into a relation
That lasts a life time of troubles
The intoxicating fragrant breathe
Of sublime petals of night jasmine blends
With the stetorous breath
Of the young lovers to form a potent mix
Fluid desire flows from enthralled gazes
Punctuated with dewy kisses
In this incredible bubble of love
Oblivious to the flow of time and tide
Lovers discover themselves as they are lost
In each other’s embrace of bliss
A remarkably refulgent rainbow
Of hopes, desires and dreams is painted
On the face of the blanche satin sheets
By eager yet subtle hands of juvenile love
As a fresh outlook of life is born
That shows beauty and splendour in everything
And as the golden dawn comes
With sunbeams pouring in through the curtains
To find the endearing entwined couple
In passionate embrace in slumber
Their life a sweet melody in their ears
And smiles faintly playing on lips
Those scarlet and swollen
With the touch of unbridled, candid passion
And they delight in the bounty of blessing
Endowed by benevolent love on their threshold
For life now for them has
A panacea of all troubles true love…
