Just some poetry starts (she did this to me.)

It was now the season of spring, and the land was enamelled with the lustre of new-born flowers.

The desert demon-song whipped the sand, stampeding the dust-dervishes before it.

As a fecund cloud laden with the promises of  succor she is cleaved upon the mountain.  Though spitted upon the peak of manhood, she erodes stony pride with soft

poetry, philosophy

I heard that Bob Dylan used to write songs by piecing together bits of other songs that he'd tried to write but weren't flowing. You should try writing a whole story around ideas you've been toying with, just stick them all together and fill in the blanks.

Love the cloud / mountain imagery.

TO A LADY,
ON SEEING HER BLUSH.
BY THE KHALIF RADHI BILLAH.

LEILA, whene’er I gaze on thee
My altered cheek turns pale;
While upon thine, sweet maid, I see
A deep’ning blush prevail.

Leila, shall I the cause impart
Why such a change takes place?-
The crimson stream deserts my heart
To mantle on thy face.
