Read Time:44 Second
Today,
Heavens beckon,
A Gem released to the earth,
Kept in dark lovely skin,
Gap-toothed.
She walks with gait,
Like an Amazon
Taking hostages
Of her admirers.
With each step,
Her candour and courage
Blast my mortal heart.
I ache,
Knowing I must have been hit by love.
Feared I may become her prisoner,
She surrendered to me!
Happy Birthday, my captive…
May God smile upon you today;
May He grant all your heart’s good wishes;
May He guide & guard our ship to divine fulfillment.
I care, as ever!
Signed: Your Captor
Opekeny
Thanks
