That Gentle Touch..O My Love! Poem by sundaram chandrakalaadhar

O MY LOVE!

don't you know how long

i yearn for your soft touch-

that gentle touch of your fingers

upon my closed eyelids?

if only could you realize its power

to melt my miseries and grief,

caressing me into the skies

of serenity and rippleless rest!

your touch is the first song

of the dawn dissolving my gloom-

a ray of light to hold on to ascend

onto my hopes and happiness!

delay not, my love, deprive not

the gentle dew of your love.
