~Ribbon Bound~

today I moved, I left one screen
exchanged the blue for 'nother scene
clouds in layers, way up high
another view, of blue, in sky

lying back, closed my mind
where I tried, some peace to find
I rode the breeze, shut out the world
felt warmly blushed, by thoughts unfurled

it's you I saw, a shadow clear
closer coming, walking near
long, slow steps, your hand reached out
to touch my soul, my heart, no doubt

desires mine, as I too, tried
with outstretched hands, and tears, I cried,
"I'm waiting here, can't your eyes feel
the heat, the warmth, the love, the real"

and just as words from lips escaped
a noise in sky zoomed loud, awake
it did me out, from dreams of you
as planes I saw maneuver, two

and spin and dip and watched, in awe
tried to capture in their fall
then quickly gone, as they had come
the peace came back though dream was done

but softly came another breeze
slipped back to dreamland, with an ease
to finish thoughts of fantasy
a gentle kiss , from you to me

and sinful touch, desires met
I floated high, on clouds and yet
another sound, called out to me
my heart was pounding, for you see

I turned around, I seemed to feel
the touch, the kiss, the sin was real
saw next to me, placed on the ground
was rose, so red, with ribbon bound

attached a note, my eyes to view
with words of share, to me from you

"Here lay two roses, blooms yet to unfold
One is a treasure, the other is gold
Awaiting the tender to open expand
Longingly, both need a warm, guiding hand
Almost perfection, in life yet untold
Here lay two roses, blooms yet to unfold."

Maureen,
Ahhhh, two roses, this is the best, with so many meanings. I'm glad that I stopped be and read this poem of yours.
