Etude de Poppy

.


In a field of poppies
under infinite stars...
She sits with silent smile-
her gentle eyes watching with wonder,
the pale glow of a midnight moon
raining softly on a single poppy
held aloft in her Lover’s hand.
An offering to the night sky...
A testament to the Grace
and Loving-Kindness
of one single flower.










Author notes

For maa, and jean-marc... and the two are ONE. Blessings to You both.

The excellent poppy pic is by maa. The background is a variation of it.

    This is so delectable, the pretty poppy. It is on my to-do list of flower maidens to personify. Dearest Maa Rose, you totally deserve these special words with all its elegance for your gracefulness and for just being the oneness of you. Who would know that you are hold such oneness with nature?!? Much luv, Ma♥Belle

    An exquisite tribute, Poet, to a blessed coupling, a bright bonding... my sweet little sister marion and gentle, insightful brother jean-marc. Your words trace a gentle delineation of of two souls merged in union, voices in harmony singng the One Song.

    Be ever bright, my brother!

    dear presence, a deep thank for a so beautiful homage to the grace of the being, and the oneness which lies under the apparence of two bodies-souls. an exquisite tenderness arises from these words directly expressed through your heart.
