In the secretive eye
of my cavorting mind,
you are everblooming
like a yellow jasmine.

Strikingly exotic,
tenderly sensitive,
ardently passionate
and naturally wild.

Untouchable, you are
sheltered and protected,
a fragrant flower of
many a dark desire.

Timidly evoking
my innermost feelings,
being lost, being lost
in the dreamlike wonder
of an eastern forest,
you seem to be right there
amidst the whispering
glades of soft green bamboo.

Charmingly embracing
the moist warm air of night,
you are a lover from
a distant outside world,
of whimsies ethereal,
yet so intensely real.

Back here, you are sweetness
sugar from distant lands -
a brilliant flower of
graceful polished passion.

In the scent of happen!

Sudhir....
there is no one that can write as you do, with the exotic flair of artistry.....you always paint pictures in my mind of far away and beautiful places, of lands that have ever called my wandering soul.....thank you for yet another trip to Shangri-la......

Live...Love...Be grateful for both!!
