You Are My Poetry Poem by Arun Maji

I would give you back that poem
I have found in you.
I have found it in your cherry lips
Smiling, dancing and singing to me.
I have found it in golden valley between your rising hills
Teasing and mocking me.
I have found it in subtle sway of your hips
Tempting and inviting me.

I must give you back the poem
That is yours.
Because you have written it within my heart.

But please give me an opportunity
To read that poem aloud,
Sing that poem aloud,
To this painfully lost human race.
I want to show it to them
You are not a woman
You are a poetry,
An exquisitely beautiful poetry.

And tomorrow, if I may
I would like to invite you to a dinner.
And if you kindly allow
In dim light of candle,
I wish to explore another poetry
That is otherwise hiding in you.

And then day after,
I would give you back that poetry.
