II O Long Black Hair
O long black hair of love,
In your dark shades a dove,
My heart, circles in rings,
Beating white wings.
Jehangir Jivaji Vakil.
Revelation
O, I have dreamt on many rain-dim eves
Of Beauty folded in the flowers and leaves,
Spraying the grass with laughter as with light
Of shaken pearls that lit her hair’s dark night;
But never dreamed her eyes so deep might be
As those with which last eve you gazed at me.
Jehangir Jivaji Vakil.
