When I Embrace You



When I Embrace You

When I embrace you
You seem to me a butterfly
Cause of my
Paramount joy

When romantic words
You utter
Like fragile wings
Your delicate lungs flutter

When your affection
You shower
My mind blooms
As a flower

When you kiss
My passionate chest
You suck my flowery life’s
Nectar best

When you whisper
To my mind’s flower
Life seems
A colorful bower

In my embrace
A butterfly colorful
Unknowingly I enter
A dreamland beautiful
