When I Kiss You Poem by C. P. Sharma

When I kiss you,
my whole being is vibrant with the music of
the Alaknanda gushing down the Himalayas
rounding the angularities of my mind
to move in unison with you
passionately eager to mingle
into the oceanic depths of serenity.


When I kiss you,
I feel, I am a butterfly
hopping in joy from flower to flower
coloring my soul in your color
gathering honey from flower cups
softening my soul in your arms
feeling the bliss of eternity.


Note: Alaknanda is a Himalayan river in the state of Uttarakhand, India that is one of the two headstreams of the Ganges, the major river of Northern India and the holy river of Hinduism. The other headstream, Bhagirathi, which is longer, is the source stream.
