#ravishing
she was artistic,
unconsciously making everything ravishing
she was poetic,
everything she did was aesthetic

Cynosure of all eyes
A sight for sore eyes
Coveted girl in the neighbourhood
There's a horde outside
Waiting for the exhibition of the diamond she owns
Beauty dripping on you like cream on a cone
That kind of glare that could make a man blind
A glint of hunger brimming in my eyes
A hunger for your love
I feel a scratch in my stomach
Could be butterflies and more
Like which world are you from
Your body is built like Rome
A round of applause when you walk
With the je ne sais quoi in your possession
You are a model and there's no doubt
Born into la dolce vita
You don't seem to have a scar
Mona Lisa of the present time
I sailed the world searching for you
Because I heard your dulcet tones
I fell into the waters
Are you a siren inviting me for hostage in your treasure nest
Hollywood stars in the flash of the cameras
Smiles beckoning and taming my wild heart
Do you have the midas touch?
You're glittering like gold
My solicitude for you is because I love you
That's the deepest secret in my heart
I've failed to pen down my emotions
Scared they could tear me into pieces
When you walk away from me
I may not hide my dismay
So I'll become an introvert till I heal from the pain
She embraced me with remorse in her eyes
With emollient words in her whispers
Nibble on my ears till the frown faded
Like Hansel and Gretel we've escaped from the witch's house before
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss like Romeo told Juliet
A reverie about The Ravishing Queens in our lives
Enchanted by you like I'm under a spell
Maybe it's the music giving me this epiphany
I'm hoping it's true love not an infatuation

Hand on the thorns
and eyes on the rose.
Singing ravishingly
a happy song
is only half of
the story is told!

Via the phone
When I heard your voice
Having a friendly tone--
At long last you have won--
My diffidence and anxiety gone
An electrifying ecstasy
Charged my heart's zone,
Who fate was
To ceaselessly lament and moan.
The vein inundating feeling
You evoked, anon,
Percolated down to every bone
To each love thirst
To atone!

Mirror mirror on the wall,
Who is the fairest of all,
Like Snowhite your daughter is the fairest of all.
Look behind you in the mirror,
See a slight faded image of your mother,
You a copy of me but ravishingly lovely my daughter.
We are the blossoms of the same tree,
Each a bloom of our own time you see,
A reflection of the same beauty.
I may have wilted, my petals fallen to earth,
But you are a bouquet of flowers,each its worth,
A splash of colours,
Like a ravishing red rose,
That accent your beauty most,
Or the white dazzling daisies,
Which captures your eyes that pleases,
Some pink carnation and yellow sunflowers,
Gives in you a glimpse of a sunset shower.
Your sweet smile melts heartstrings,
With a look of an angel kind and caring.
