I know! I shouldn't post so many poems...I'll stop..but it's been an unusual day for me...the dam that held back the flow of my muse burst...I'm not saying any of these is good, but at least I'm writing..and for that, I thank you all. Rapture of the Rose Delicate violet hidden in peaceful wooded vale sister of the daffodil and teller of this tale Bouquets of love unclaimed lay moldering in the hedge familial flowers breathing soft and browning on the edge Tossed from a fleeing bride whose groom had been untrue carelessly thrown from a car tied to a billet-doux Goodbye words dotted with a tear spoke of pain and lovers lost honesty was the method dying flowers now the cost Who knows the terrible cost of the rapture of the rose who pays when a lover lies and when a lover knows |

but of course the answer to writing is writing . . . you must. I enjoyed this, particularly the first stanza. |

Well, you can do it, you're in control! Yes, muse knows no limit, write on! "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey." Laurie Lee |

Yes, please write and write some more. Your muse is speaking quite well for you and of course this piece inspired by one of Passions most talented and wonderful poets could not be anything other than great. Excellent write and I loved not only the first stanza, but the third and fourth ones held quite an impact as well. |

Everyone pays the price of betrayal... even the flowers who would loan such beauty to us, given the chance. *S* This is lovely, PDV! |

Hi Sharon, Beautifully done, I am trying this same phrase out and finding it difficult, yours simple glides so wonderfully, Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

Ms. deVine, it's wonderful to see your poetry again! I loved the imagery and the simplistic flow...keep em coming my friend!  *Krista Knutson* I'm a slow dying flower In a frost-killing hour The sweet turning sour and untouchable... -Natalie Merchant |
