Sweet gardenias linger upon the night flowing a waterfall of temptation Oh! How she wishes, she will wake in the morn and bathe within the petals of passion Drowning in bouquet of love bittersweet white velvet tickling between toes, discreet Oh! To awake with gardenias in her hair maybe someone mysterious will place it there opened French Door invites cool night air moonlight reflects upon jeweled lavalliere a candle dripping eternity of tears kiss of a wish soft upon her cheek scent of gardenia lingers upon the night woven in her hair, gardenias' creamy white Chantilly Whispers http://www.angelfire.com/poetry/syberrosetx/ Every child is an artist.

Gorgeous Poetic aroma, Victoria. *s* What a wonderful way to start ANY day, by breathing in that bouquet. Almost impossible to stay sour when something that stunning in nature captures us, isnt' it? much in the way this poem captured me....sigh.....SR |

Being from the south and growing up with the smell of gardenias your poem woke up memories in a sweet way. |
