Appease
by Muralidharan Mudaliar
Appease
Sparkling and brimming she came
inviting me to laugh and quaff
So dancing her stance
And so enticing her glance
With all her charm and all her wit
for nothing more she pleads
than an iota of love to please
One drop of love to quench and appease
In all my ploy and play
She looks for that one speck
One spark of love
One merciful piece
To quench an ancient thirst and appease
For all my pain and many agony
One iota of love I could not clone
From any single sincere bone
For her to quench her thirst and appease
I wish I could
for the life of me I wish I could
eke out love for the life of me
One ounce for her to quench and appease
