Thief Of Light Poem by Rita Pal

In the days of spring roses; you gently kissed my nights,
You were gone when the summer breezes whispered gently
To the secret garden of delicate pink and scarlet trysts
Where rain kissed roses sparkled in diamonds at first light
Gently wrapped in star crossed dreams of silent wildfires.

You are the thief, who steals my summer suns,
You are the thief, who captures my winter’s slumber,
You are the thief who holds the lock and keys
To imprison my desolate starlit love for you
With an entrapment of dreams locked to you.

Helplessly, I search for your beautiful smile of decadent gold,
Curiously, I search for your fragile heart of sparkling diamonds,
Tirelessly, I search for your soulful eyes of starlit sapphires,
Recklessly, I search for your elusive wondrous mysteries,

Secretly, you conceal all the gold, diamonds and sapphires,
You locked my heart away in your box of fire dreams,
You imprisoned the glimpses of daylights’ gentle magic,
Banished me to the lands of warm summer rains,
To wait patiently for just one gentle rain dropped kiss.
