Dancing inside a cell

You are so beautiful to me
I know
Many will not agree with me
Your nose
Your eyes
Your lips
And the body’s contour
Are so common,
So ordinary
Still
Out of thousands
When I see you
I know it is you,
My dearest.

In you, I see
The thousand avatars of roses
Of maple and oak leaves
Ants, elephants and tarantulas
Strawberries and sweethearts
Mangoes, oranges, durians and beautiful women
Desperado and diwanas
I see the signature of the cosmic dance
The marvels,
The limits
The scope of possibilities
The exuberance of flow of life
That makes each of us unique
Just like you.
