Blossoming

For you to feel as you feel right

I sat gazing at a rose this morning

Of form so divine.

The leaf fell sensually over the rigid stem

So fawningly winking at me

Inviting me forward.

So I sat and looked and gazed all day

At the erotic flame

Whose brimmed scarlet lips blew kisses at my quivering heart.

Although her beauty sprung out

Like a diamond among pebbles

It was forced to give up my heart

To a picture I saw…

A picture of a true blossom

Of encompassing eyes and oaken hair

Whose toothy glint shamed the sun in radiance

And silky skin shut silver thoughts.

And it was after my mind was lost forever

That I realised the picture;

Well the picture was of you.
