My love Thy hair is one kingdom The king whereof is darkness Thy forehead is a flight of flowers Thy head is a quick forest Filled with sleeping birds Thy breasts are swarms of white bees Upon the bough of thy body (Read Related : Greatest Love Poems) Thy body to me is April In those armpits is the approach of spring Thy thighs are white horses yoked to a chariot of kings They are the striking of a good minstrel Between them is always a pleasant song My love Thy head is a casket Of the cool jewel of thy mind The hair of thy head is one warrior Innocent of defeat Thy hair upon thy shoulders is an army With victory and with trumpets Thy legs are the trees of dreaming Whose fruit is the very eatage of forgetfulness Thy lips are satraps in scarlet In whose kiss is the combinings of kings Thy wrists are holy (Read Related : Emily Dickinson Poems) Which are the keepers of the keys of thy blood Thy feet upon thy ankles are flowers in vases of silver In thy beauty is the dilemma of flutes Thy eyes are the betrayal Of bells comprehended through incense
