I used to be his flower

he courted me,
pledged his love
and his honor,

freestyle, i'd dance
for him
softening december's
cruel hour,

he saved me
from extinction
and insanity

but alas
his crystal vase
tightened taut
round my stem,

my dance
too rehearsed,
and suffered
my power,

yet this day
he still dreams of me,

his sweet browneyed
flower

Goddess, to my mind you will always be a flower! ~ A glorious sunflower!

So good to see you posting again. You have so much talent and beauty to share.

Giving you a humongous welcome-back hug,

Linda

Michele...I guess some things just should not be put into a vase, and should be left wild and free.
