Mammoth structure of marbles of the Mughal era
Masonry erected, showed architectural ingenuity of man
Monarch’s love for his beloved buried within
Magical horizon enhances its aura
Magnetic allure attracts tourists from across the globe
Mellowed today, yet remains a wonder of the world
Monumental opulence of love carved in stone.
This form of poetry is called Pleiades. It has only one word in the title followed by a seven line stanza. The first word of each line begins with the same letter as the title. Hope you enjoyed it!
