PRETENSE

I pretend so successfully

to be without you

wherever I go

when actually the buds of your smiles

burst  silently into blossoms

in the bower of my  heart;

so invisible to the world

spreading the aroma

over miles of misty hearts

lost in spells of birds chanting

about beauty deceiving love.

You are so kind dear to have

flung  your priceless baby smile

into  a catch in the woods of my heart

lending  curves of bliss to star-flowers

in conference with flirty breezes

ambling  from  wet corners of night;

wherever I go

it’s only you that comes to  my sight !
