Our Orchid-Blossom Dream Poem by Rumpa Das

And I know
when starlight meets dawn
a new hope is born -
Just when you, my dear,
whisper the rhapsody
of our passion-song
and I awake in
an orchid-blossom dream.
Enwrapt in a promise of love
Your fingers coil with mine,
The glint of trust in your eyes
Match the depth of my thirst.
The tapestries of trust and deceit
Cover the remnants of that first glow
And shield us from the world,
Our feelings are not up for show.
