Flowers In The Sky


Flowers in the sky,
sparkling dew,
reflections in my eye,
far across the universe,
that's how it flies,
my love for you,
a cosmic burst.

Happiness is
total bliss,
sadness is
never missed,
my love for you
like ruby roses,
throbbing,
throbbing,
my heart
knows this.

Fast across
the nighttime sky,
starburst streak,
lovers happily point
and cry,
such beauty
to this earth bound eye.

Cupids arrow,
potion tipped,
let fly,
let fly,
moonstruck lovers,
watching time
go by,
and by.

Love and live,
laugh and cry,
what more
could you want,
before you die;
flowers in the sky,
starburst,
moonlight,
you and I…
oh my,
oh my.

A splendid starburst of emotion.

Hold fast to the star - worth a wish !

Thank you Marge...I loved "Feather Me" BTW.
Been wishing on stars since I knew what they were. Hmph! Haven't done me any good yet, though! (I don't think...anyway -whispered).

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

Insect, thanks, flowers are wonderful no matter where they are, aren't they?

Spitfire, "admiring my style" - wow, coming from you whose style I admire, is a real compliment to me. Mucho thanks.

And JM, my friend, whom I admire...period, thank you so much.
