*When she spoke The sound of her voice Was like the trumpet of divine will On creation day: soft like magic Rhythmic like a prayer Solemn like an incantation Performative like a judicial sentence And when she laughed Her laughter was hypnotic and new Like the world’s first laugh ever Her beauty was surreptitious like a dream It crept in like a mist at the break of day So I sat and listened to the melody of her voice and it felt like I was swathed in the aura of her eyes*

The Voice
*When she spoke The sound of her voice Was like the trumpet of divine will On creation day: soft like magic Rhythmic like a prayer Solemn like an incantation Performative like a judicial sentence And when she laughed Her laughter was hypnotic and new Like the world’s first laugh ever Her beauty was surreptitious like a dream It crept in like a mist at the break of day So I sat and listened to the melody of her voice and it felt like I was swathed in the aura of her eyes*
