I have already posted this poem in an earlier post but i'm currently facing the writers block, and anyway it keeps with the demand of a happy post:
The silver beach invited me
To waters silver more
The blinking stars spoke luringly
Of enchanting fairy lore.
On the crags sat I, in wishful dream
As drunken as in sleep
While the lapping water whispered me
The secrets of the deep.
"My little child", tinkled Neptune's nymph
"Come let me make you mine
Wish me your love, wate'er she be
And I shall make her thine.
Whether rosy lips or lustrous eyes
Most entices your heart
Yours damsel shall be yours to choose
Beauty that rivals art."
Bewitched , beguiled
In euphoric delight
Into mesmerizing musings
I took a flight.
The water laughed a lilting laugh
The breeze, it danced to tune
With a knowing look on my love - lost face
Lazily shone the moon.
I thought of eyes iridescent black
The dewy depths of love
Of ravishing locks, the tangles dark
That trap for evermore.
And further more of charming smiles
Of smiles that conquer all
Of beauty envied beauty
Beauty that Venus palls.
Beauty that'd be mine
To love, to worship, to adore.
But the water nudged my idle feet
And reminded me of more.
The breeze it gave a gentle tap
And bade me to the heart
More beautiful than beauty itself
A dwelling for my heart.
And having wished all that I willed
I asked the nymph trepidation filled
"Can she be ever mine?"
The fairy gave gave a tremulous smile,
"Look there beside you, there she stands,
To be forever thine."
I stood in swooning in wondrous daze
Enthralled, bedazzled, enraptured I stared
And offered you my trembling heart,
"Not thou mine, but I thine."

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.. n there was light.. hurrrrrrrrrrray!
loved the romance in those liness... n that sheer beauty!
:D
IT TRULY IS A PLEASURE and a treasure to be someone else's..
I had goosebumps here:
"Enthralled, bedazzled, enraptured I stared And offered you my trembling heart,"Not thou mine, but I thine."
n it truly feeles like heaven when you finally get to live with any kind of beauty: immortal, soul-like, material or physical..
:)
love the way 'venus palls' n the way ya get those nuding idle feet tickle our senses!!

As I have said b4 too, you do a wonderful job of descriptions! and I could appreciate the scene although I'm kinda more of a human-abstract-feeling sorta person(i believe in expressing the feelings nd beliefs which make the person believe in tht art :) )
"Beauty that rivals art"?
But beauty(originality,harmony with nature nd self) is a measure of art :p
"Not thou mine, but I thine." Well,lol, this is where you got philosophy in b/w again...
One must believe in mutual love and a conditional, which is not taken for granted.
“Truth is beauty and beauty is truth”...I start finding things a bit agitating when they do not fit the truth... :)
Anyway, it was dazzlingly ornate :)

"Not thou mine, but I thine."
Nice 1 :-)

The first 5 lines
"I have already posted this poem.......happy post"
were so beautiful and touching!
(Wait now let me go and read the rest of the poem ;) )

Beatiful!
Funny in a way, coming from a girl. But then a guy would not have been able to describe so beautifully perhaps.
(I guess you are compesating for Kailash Kher by restoring balance in ths world where he, the guy, sang "Teri Deewani".)
Anyways I've kinda lost touch with my finer emotions long long back. I am simply reptilian these days. Make that these years.
I feel dumb reading things like these :P
