“MAGNOLIA BLOSSOM” I picked a blossom from a Magnolia tree in the meadow and gave it to you, and you placed it in your hair of silk ringlets that flowed with the gentle breeze…, Hearts sang in tune beneath the moonlit sky, scent of flowers carried upon the breeze, sweet upon my soul… I was in awe of your beauty as I gazed into eyes softer than a summer night, and I was taken with the enchantment of you… Whispers in the night beckoned my still soft heart, a solemn concerto of strings dancing in step with an angel… My heart beats with desires warm, as I’m drawn closer to one with a magnolia blossom in her hair… All I am able to do is sigh your memory, it lives with my every breath . . .

This is a romantically beautiful poem Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent. |

littlewing - I know, I know, I've already replied but I just wanted to thank you for writing this with me again. I'm so glad that some of the duets made the book, as they are special, and I wonder if any other poets elsewhere have written duets. At least I haven't seen them as yet. You're a very special lady Sue, very special... BC |
