to dream roses, the heart is the life of a daisy, amaranth tears and honeyed gold, plucked unwittingly, sometimes ingested white confetti taste the salt, feel it become the soul of a smile, memorize the fullness of a semi-circle, (s)he loves me, loves me not-- linger warm in arms beyond the flute of flesh and bones.... garner roses growing--glowing--in the rain, reaching for the light, yet leave me scattered as dandelions and September seeking again the kiss of sun [This message has been edited by Klassy Lassy (11-27-2010 11:20 PM).] |

Martie, I have a yellow rose still blooming in my front yard. We had snow the day before Thanksgiving and there it was, big as life, like stored sunshine.The snow is gone now, but that rose is wondrously tenacious. I love your tenacity,too. Thank you for the read! |
