Mount EverestLacklustre beams through verdant shine
Dappled glow, gravity facing sea.
Oak pine sandlewood perfume -
you never knew which - wafting.
Stranger cruising, 212 NYC.
Parisienne femme, si senorita?
English cuppa, cherry blossoms -
you never knew where - drifting.
Treason to mind, soul, body.
Apple pie a la mode, cheese fondue.
Unravel a bevy of taste -
you never knew why - lifting.
And to this, conclusion thus barren.
For though pen is mightier than sword
Nuanced milieu, subtleties -
you'll never know - lacking.
