Flowers

Kneeling upon a smile to touch the vine
Scentful seeping in blissful sensation
Leering beauty and plucking temptation
Just one piece of nature's heaven divine

Arose to steal a kiss from sunlight's ray
Like morning's dew upon a suffused glow
Facing the zephyr where the blossoms blow
Where pollens aflutter towards the bay

Way to describe the flowers. Pollens aflutter, I like that part. Reminds me of the birds and insects carrying along the scent far across the land. Like the use of personification as well. Excellent word choice once again. Always, Laura
