The scent of roses in full bloom,
The touch of drying leaves,
I lay on the yellowed grass
beneath the eaves of trees,
The wind in my hair
The coolness of the breeze
I am sitting on my knees
Beneath the eaves of trees
The birds singing secrets
Ones I cannot tell
Until I hear
The ringing of that bell.

An enchanting poem.The first 4 lines just flowed so well and then I kind of hesitated as I read the rest.
You have some beautiful images in this that touched me.
Thank you so much for entering my first contest!
