Love Transforms Poem by Arun Maji

I have held
many beautiful things in my hands.
But nothing is more tender
than touch of your hands.

I have heard
many beautiful music of this world.
But nothing is more soothing
than soft whisper of your voice.

I have seen
many beautiful things of this universe.
But nothing is more healing
than sparkle of your smile.

I have drunk
from many beautiful rivers.
But nothing is sweeter
than sweetness of your kiss.

O my love,
you are that divine light
that has turned my sorrow to sweetness.
I bow down before you o heart,
I bow down before you.
