Romance

Got thinking about you today
The elusive that you are,
Observed your play with hearts
From near and afar
You are the kiss of the red rose
The dew on the morning leaf
You flit on the butterfly wing
You are the glistening snowcliff
You are also the whispered vow
The curl of clasped hands
You are the soft hush of breath
Which on the lips lands
You are the flutter of the heart
On hearing the lover's name
You are the lowering of the lids
On thinking of  the same
Oh ! You wretched romance,
Residing that favourite book
You are the soft sunshine
Glittering on the brook
But you are an elusive one,
So gently do you tread
You play  a peek a boo
With my heart instead.
