My Sweetest Love

My sweetest love,
The sight of your celestial countenance
Is like the veil of dawn in ethereal effervescence
As I embrace the sunrise in the eyelids of the morning
You are like the angel of dawn as she is descending
In the wings of Aurora as she descends in the dale
Bearing the golden jar of the nectar of immortelle
In the tranquility of the immaculate Eucharist
Immaculate Eucharist of our eternal tryst.

My sweetest love,
I am like the chirping brown cricket
Nibbling at the leaves in the green thicket
Moment by moment
I turn the pages of my heart
In the figments of my thought
Entranced in the labyrinths of the quilt
Woven by the hands of destiny
Like the notations of classical symphony.

My sweetest love,
Your kiss is the sweetest kiss of opium
The opium of the ether of Elysium.
Our love is a mystery
That we cannot even unravel in poetry
For as the bottomless is fathomless
So, the expanse of our love is endless.
Who can understand the universe?
When no one can measure the expanse.

So, is the boundless measure of my sweetest love.

N.B:
The temporal version of "My Sweetest Love" has been published on Alicia Keys Fansite.
This is also the title poem of my special anthology of love poems to be released for the 2006 Valentine.
