Since you found the crocus,
my spirit, I marvel at your gardens.
Your hands give life to the fresh earth,
stress the words of flowers, insects
and the quiet still animals on pages,
electronic windows virtually blank.
The world may taste all the joy
you’ve found in this place
where we breathe, but it
doesn’t know all the spirits
we keep running about our feet.
Give me your daisies that bloom
at your feet and with joy in my heart
I will lace them through my hair.
Pour back the Light you have
graced within me, sing songs
strength for your hands
kiss warm rivers
released from my heart
so your blood is bright as your roses.
In my song of love and joy
I hold you and your family,
love that knows no boundries claims
no ownership. Like a forested
AmeriIndian, I give thanks
to be allowed to be
part of all the Great Spirit
blesses. Generous and gifted
you provide a feast for the senses.
In this riot of joy
I can only give thanks for the pleasure
having you and yours visit my life.

I am quite honored by the praise. I have many others in the same sensual style. I like writing like this. This one is to praise a close friend. Others are erotic, spiritual and just about being alive. Again my thanks. Peace & Love, Tom B.

Truely beautiful
This is a truly beautiful poem, for I beleive it speaks of the spirt of mother nature, life, in it's aeons through her feelings, being blessed by ones that walk on her surface, and the ones above, those unseen forces that govern us and her, our spirits entwined in their guidance

If you love truly sensual poetry about nature and flowers then her works are well worth your visit. Thank you for all the praise and joy, but truly I am but a mirror for someone elses spirit.
Peace & Love, Tom B.

flood gates needed !
How incomplete
my garden would be now
without your
amaranth spirit to grace it!
Heaven blossoms simply
beneath my feet,
bears them on unseen wings
across the stones... yet
the crocus knows crystalline
vibrance in its purple depth
and teaches the sun to sing!
What wellsprings dew-kiss
wild roses blushing the banks
of warm rivers!
My daisies? awwww!...smiling,
for they dance, full-petaled,
among a feast of Virginia
morning glories!
I'll never be able to live up to this, so I'll just let it flood my heart. ~ Love, Karen
Tomis
...thank you.

Holding you in the Light, Tom B.

She is softness personnified in these words and a palm always upturned and held out to others when if fact we should offer her ours for the friendship she gives. She will no doubt have smiles and tears when she reads this. Beautifully done Tom Love, C
