Joy of Touch (Fibonacci)

by Sylvia   Mar 9, 2010


Soft
hands
caress
each petal
with a tender touch.
Absorbing the beauty within
every lustrous satiny fiber, a regal rose.

    I'll have to agree with a lot of others. The image you drew in my mind as I was reading was beautiful. I'd like to someday write poetry like this. I'll probably have trouble but it seems you wrote with ease. Very well done and written. Good job on the win, it was definitely deserved! 5/5 - Cody
