Blossom

by Melpomene   Jun 8, 2011


I find her -
a heart of wild flowers.

Plucking dandelions from
fields of Eden, while
conjuring blossoms
at my feet.

For daisy chains bloomed
upon her pencil -
with a petal
for her thoughts.

She masks herself
a thousand Gardenias
watering skin and
weeding cheeks -

casting nightshade
from my mind and
writing of an
everlasting spring.

    This was absolutely amazing! I can't get over the ideas that you are able to come up with! It's incredible! I've been waiting for you to post this so I can nominate it.

    Your words, symbolism and ideas.. I just can't understand how your brain works! lol. I think your poetic talent is absolutely breathtaking.

    weeding cheeks -"
