creamy white roses, indigo
sky
promises of everlasting
devotion
luscious scent, whispering
sighs
poetic verses, full of
emotion
flowering buds of
affection grow
romance blooming, garden of
love
white petals , blue misty
glow
soaring high on wings of a
dove
innocence , a lover's first kiss
collapsing within soft
moist skin
entwined in the arms of bliss
intoxicating aroma, world
spins
beyond the dark veil of
night
falling rose petals, white
satin
our spirits ascend, new
height
no greater love can we
imagine

Beautiful picture & words ~ I can't write without images or pictures ~ The last stanza is specially uplifting ~
ReplyDeleteHi Grace,
DeleteThanks for visiting..I usually write and then find a picture to compliment what I wrote but, in this case I used the photo
and then penned the verses on how I felt about the roses.
This is a remarkable treat for the senses--excellent work!
ReplyDeleteHello Nico, Thank you for the lovely comment.
DeleteA collaboration you couldn't pass by
ReplyDeleteAs the rose you were able to spy
When those buds take hold
Things can sure turn to pure gold
Hand in hand across the land
Making up ones own bora bora sand
That collapse would be nice too
Between me and you
A collaboration I couldn't pass
Deleteas the beautiful roses I did behold
speaking to me the language of love
hope we make it to the bora sand
as we travel by sea and by land
a new adventure I have planned...
A beautiful collaboration- full of beautiful colors and textures. A fine exploration of that first blush of new love.
