Mirages! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Poem by lalitha iyer

the flash of youth
the glaze of cheeks
the gleam in those looks
the wine in those words

I found beauty of the curves
in the moons and waves of blue
then in the hips and the lips
and clueless horizons haunting the tips

the coal black curls
the queenly strides
the mesmeric motions
and the hypnotising emotions

when life bubbled
surfaced everything so sweet
and when the winds reversed
the holed lungs battered

Butterfly beings
Dew like doings
Cloudy existence
Deserted all sense.
