Mortal remains
fading roots
Within a ring of fire
the dance resumes . . .

I beg of you
enslave my madness
Rotting roses permeate
my garden bower

Deliver me
my Savior

I am dying on the vine

Don't let the maddness overtake you,
trust me, it doesn't get you too far.
Hang in there sweet tweety~

You truly are a talented writer! Your poetry moves me--and all over the place at that! I always know I'm in for an emotional ride.

I won't let you die on the vine, dear precious one! I'm on my way with a pitcher full of angelic nutrients to put the tweet back in your tweeter!

Warm embrace and loving blessings,
EA

You are definitely too vibrant to die on the vine. I too, enjoy your talent.

This is wonderful,

Dark thoughts, but very beautifully expressed ...
I am in need of fresh roses' fragrance!

When the silt is burned ... nature - gratefully - showers us with beauty again ...
may Nature's renewal brighten your thoughts.

Hugs. Margherita

I think you are much too young to 'die on the vine.'

Hang in there. Help is on it's way ...

The dancing of root
in ossoary dank
pierces and lifts
the ring to release

A plea is heard faint
within the aroma of rose
captured madness is loosed
within bower'd glade

You are soon delivered
Redemption is nigh
Your savior is you

You live in the wine


So there!

Bill - so so utterly sweet to me
thank you - your heart is showing
but then - it always does

littlewing, even as your petals wither and fall, they will always be renewed with new and fragrant blooms.

I’m glad someone bumped this one, it is really nice.


Very nice write littlewing!
