A Poem by Priyanka Adhikary

              

            Dawn of Love

It was a scarlet sky of dawn

overpowering with amity of God, rooted in devotion

The epicenter of my heart overheard calming whispers of love

from the voice of an archangel robed in purity

oceanic-eyed, hair drizzled in golden pearl

merrily poised with a beam of heavenly light

The sky of dreams soon resembled a framed art of neon lights

I vapored into transfixed magnetism of the colossal universe

It pulled me closer to my lover filled with an aura of glowing sun

Dawn looked hypnotic, alluring like a calm of ocean

Birds soon chirped their way into the green of palm, the empty churches

Tweeted like whistling stars, in godly tunes of celestial dimension

My human beloved arrived into my soul along with a bouquet of petalled roses

Dips of tenderness, forehead kisses, and eyes sealed in devoutness

We merged in union of alignment, offering concord to our soul of oneness

Dawn whispered again,

Dear children of the realm of peppy lights, seraphim & heralds of God

Fly like love-birds garbed like the snowy of dove

We bless you; we bless thou, we bless thee

in the name of alpha and omega hallowed with the beam of true love.
