A flower in a Dream

If I send you flowers with no scent

While in joy my heart throbs silent,

and my hands weave an umbral lace

hovering in the air in an eerie dance,

dissolving reality with gaunt reverie

our words to each other finally adhere,

even when they are barely whispered

still received as the gift most valued,

creating for the flower a new fragrance

bewitching me ever from such distance

for it widens swiftly inside my dreams

and remaining real when the day beams.

    ooh, not really a question but it would be that reality still manifest from a dream (a flower with no scent is supposed to be unreal)...but really, I prefer to see answers that are not mine
    Thank you ^_^

    It started out as a question, so I don't understand how the rest of it fits. I like the imagery, as it is beautiful. I just wonder where the answer is.
