OF YOUR HEART

The dawning sounds of an ancient drum
whispered a passionate beat
it's a heart-dance to a tune up the love
wreathed in the rainbow of our dreams

where birds play their plumes
to the colours above the misty eaves of skies;

love is the tall feet of my heart
with which flees the night
thirsting to suck of your nectar...

and nectar is the life I breathe
as I float on rafts of yearning
to reach your timeless desire...

beat me then to every sound of joy
I will dance like thunders of kernel beads
till I'm reduced to honeycomb crescents...

and touch me with every moon-song
at this great moment of loving
encircled in ardent depths of pleasure...

this your heart so dear
is where my own spreads it's wings
to fly always in love with you!

(this is the last of the selected poems)
