A Moth's Desire Poem by Shamik Kumar Bose
A Moth's Desire
I ask the Moth
Tell me What doth desire
The Moth tells
In Fire
I am puzzl'd
Ask the same
The Moth tells me again
In Fire
I ask you are Ugly
Not like a Butterfly
Who doth only wonder
For the womb of a flower
The beauty in her wings
Arouses my sense
The Moth replies
It must be a sheer nonsense
I am again puzzl'd
I ask what that means
The Moths replies
A Beauty that only prevails
I ask What is that Beauty
Tell me in some sense
The Moth replies
Then make a deep dive
I am again puzzl'd
I ask what to do
The Moth responds
The answer lies in You.
The beauty in her wings Arouses my sense The Moth replies It must be a sheer nonsense................. .dappled wing of beauty yet riffles luscious glow seems to reel through sense, evocatively ingenious that awes by eloquence of imagery,10+++, thanks for sharing
