Garden Affair

I inhale Your Intoxicating fragrance Pheromones entice Lingering passion Sun and sky sweet I am delirious Dancing in your Wakening melodies Bouquet of pearly-white peaks I Awake In your quicksand soil Scattering seeds Delicate sea legs Wobbly wooden stalks Germinating roots A newborn flower Porcelain Fragile, Fertile foliage I swallow Your clear spring geyser Brisk diamond water Raining sky water Relieve my parched Withering body Swimming Stealing grace Sea of Fertility I Rejoice Your Renewing promise I am breathless Wild ecstasy A Cacophony of bird song My petals Gorgeous milk fluff A canopy of tranquility In the shape of a heart

Very very strong and evocative write...welcome to the Soup! Light & Love perhaps you'd read Part 1 When Madness Rides on Moonlight & Part 2 (sorry it's 1 poem but didn't fit! LOL) They're under the "P's" for part ...you can sort any poets work alphabetically by clicking on the top of the list of poems...

Nicely done Heather. Great use of seldom used, yet beautiful words. It's like you have planted a garden of adjectives and nouns in describing you garden.

Pretty, eloquent & alluring images drew me in ...like a dehydrated desert walker moving towards a mirage, dreaming of water spritzed on his cracked lips & salty face.
