the Best Blossom

Tender petals will dance on forever
when the blooms of love spring open
Waving in breeze the bud is clever
hiding 'neath layers like a scared orphan

Hard hands lay gently upon the bloom
and the soft petals start to come alive
A sweet fragrance will envelope the room
as new colors of promise arrive

Small kisses of passion linger on white tips
as the warmth of the gardener's released
Arousal of life is renewed by his fingertips
and the flame of intensity's increased

Together they're dancing through trials of life
he picked the best blossom to become his wife

    sometimes i think i would love to see how your mind comes up with moving poems like this one, but then again i just enjoy reading them to ruin the mystery of where they come from, keep it flowing

    even though you did not enter this poem for a trophy, I believe that everyone who reads it would easily give it a triple gold, and I would give it Platinum? Smileszzzzzz....

    loved it, and you
