Poems: Songs Of Love And The Crispness Of Autumn 

We meet, fall in love, breathe the fragrance of nature, and depart thinking of the last time we met.

The Love Song

Let's go, sit by
 the bank of river

Breathing in the
 fragrance of nature

Wordlessly,

Our hands entwined,
 wonderfully,

Our flushed cheeks

absorb the heat
 of our stolen glances,

as we listen to
 the love song

nature sings...

The Last Time We
 Met

Crisp autumn morning

The silvery sunshine,
 filtering through the golden leaves

touch my hands

making patterns

As I move my finger

And write your
 name on my palm.

Gentle breeze caress
 my cheek

I close my eyes,

And for a moment

I feel that soft
 touch of your lips

When you kissed
 me

The last time we met.
