In the moonlight,
shadows dancing,
I gaze upon,
primrose entrancing,
a single bloom
on leafless stem,
satin beauty
without blem,
glow of Luna's
shimmering light,
bathes velvet petals
in the night,
twelve dozen roses
in golden urn,
for one primrose
would surely spurn.
for in moon's light,
as shadows dance,
a yellow bloom,
my heart entrance.

Magnificent!!! Now this one WILL be in the next newsletter (if you don't mind).

I think you should create a web page about roses/flowers and do nothing but write poetry about them. sigh.

roses and moonlight ... lunas shadows in night ...
so lovely ...
another gift from your pen

As sure as God made wine
you can't wrap your arms around a memory
In the dark for me
youre the candle flame that flickers to life

Mike--You should have been a florist...This is as lovely as a bouquet of words can get.
