From: A CAROUSEL OF ROSES AND POETRY
Bonnie j.


Black Rose

Spinning on silky webs of twilight, the sorceress, the bewitching
Black Rose does reside.
She rides the winds of yesterday
and
the ever elusive tomorrow.
Bringing tales of things that will be
and
of things that have past into the memories of the vast universe.
You feel her presence, her delicate perfume,
her gentle brush upon your cheek.
You look, but you do not see.
A mirage floating across the desert
in the heat of the day.
A beauty, shimmering in the heated mist, leading you to the oasis
of
crystal clear waters.
Is she real or is she a fantasy of your burning imagination?
In the spinning sands of time-
We may catch a glimpse of this exotic sorceress.
The bewitching
Black Rose.

Bonnie~
The beauty of you is found in the petals of your poetry~
This is scrumptiously delicate ... and a lovely read to accompany the gorgeous rose photo~

(smiles) Awwwwwwwww, I think all flowers are pretty, sweet friend, black roses are indeed mysterious flowers that are bewitching but just as gorgeous as any of God's creations! (kiss on cheek) Yay, this is one true conjuring of a poem, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bonnie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
