Monster's Romance

Born to the womb of oceans she was the princess of waves, that swung & swayed,

Stealing hues from the fiery star ever morn, glistened with gold her loosely tied braid,

Body shimmered like diamonds, the dust of Milky Way rendered that angelic shine,

When coral reefs formed the cushion for her beautiful naps, fishes kissed her lips divine.

He was the king of caves, forests echoed when he coughed or sneezed,

Munching upon mountains and hillocks, sipping over the seas, survived that beast,

Glaciers thawed and dissolved at once every time he exhaled or snored,

The oceans quaked with terror whenever he walked or roared.

One fine evening when he was about to take a swig of an ocean with eyes glazed,

The sight of a lass emerging out of the ripples, flipping her hair, left him amazed,

His burning throat got quenched with the glimpse of her charm,

He couldn't gulp down that ocean as he didn't wish to cause her any harm.

Every day when the beams spread in the skies and starlight used to wink,

He neared the ocean, beholding every inch of her curves, ceased to even blink,

Extended his hands to lift her up and feel the divinity of her delicate breaths,

Within a fraction of a second, she felt as if she experienced a million deaths.

With the tip of his pinkie finger, he caressed her fragile body and face,

Unable to resist, he placed a kiss on her lips, triggered his heart beats' pace,

This was the first time ever, such a soft feeling hit the chest of a giant too hard,

While his fingertips were casting magic on that mermaid's heart.

She fell for that tender feeling of love, never did she experience, emotions profound,

She mustered the courage to open her emerald eyes & watch him closely, her man she found,

The face that appeared scary a few moments ago, she had fallen for that within no time, such an Irony!

She engraved his forehead with her dulcet kiss and he placed against his heart, his tiny miss.
