Senses

I see
The light of our love
Like meteors burning
In the still waters
Of your blue eyes

I feel
The touch of life
Like a cold snowfall
In the clear bonding
Of your golden hands

I taste
The taste of love
Like sweet strawberries
In the comfortable softness
Of your molten lips

I smell
Our collective souls
Like warm chocolate
In the stillness
Of your burning skin

    More elegant, contoured sensuality from you. Great writing!

    Especially, I like:

    “I taste
    The taste of love
    Like sweet strawberries
    In the comfortable softness
    Of your molten lips”

    Outstanding lines!

    Ah, the celebrated nascent of the senses…

    Beautiful.

    Very Anil like! But strawberries and molten lips are not working for me. Mull over it!

    Hey, where’s touch? No, I guess that one is obvious. Vivid descriptions of the senses, Anil.

    I will, for now, suffice to say that this is indubitably one of my favouritest yet. The last stanza was so beautiful, that I cannot begin to describe my reaction to it.

    Anil, you make poetry seem so very effortless. I trust you see why I am saying this, dear boy. :-)

    p.s. I missed My Generation altogether for some stupid reason but I must say, it was lovely
