Aroma

Love blossoms so intoxicatingly
in those deep gazes at passion's precious petals,
growing in our eyes, with lips grafted together
pruning my every sensation to an agonized ecstasy
using your rose fingertips of ravenous red,
to erupt tiny volcanoes of sensual lava
each time your silky touch
seeds my aching pores
till they become grasping twines
rooted in my heart.

I can only see the bouquet of your exquisite beauty,
when it thrives to make our stems of desire entwine
and we bud as a single pulse of flowering affection,
fragrance with the scent of infatuation,
planting our souls with obsession's clinging vines.

Together, rising in a firework vase
of purest caring embrace,
we inhale the secret roses of each other's garden
till it lingers forever,
in adoration's sweetest
aroma.

Author notes

For the one rose who could blossom love more beautifully than any other, my AP wife, Desire.

    oh
    my
    gosh...

    damn, that was so touching, VERY sensual, and very captivating indeed. i just love the diction and the way you have compared the essentials of a flower with that of your love. and also how each line has a reference to both love and roses. metaphorically intwined. VIVID images. very positive, very devoted... it really suits the contest you've entered "hopelessly romantic"! good luck! and congrats too for the previous win.

    you make me appreciate the aroma, the colours, and the soft, fragile petals of flowers of all kinds even more.
    a very unique and beautiful take.

    plus, that's very sweet of you to dedicate this to your AP wife.


    thanks so much for sharing! you're an awesome poet!
    bless ya!!

      Awww. You so kind. So glad it touched. Kind of pointless to have a love poem if it doesn't. Thank you so much for reading.

    I popped in to see who stole my poetry trophy, but what I saw was so amazing I felt ashamed by entering my prosa, you've got it this I must say, your poetry the aroma of the day.
