A Horticulturalists Dream

A Horticulturalists Dream Green Dreams on Green Leafy swayed his heart In blazoned flower Sifted the moisture Of kissing cuddling colour Sexy even In their craggy darkly come hither looks And secret petal nooks Pondered on description By cell and Endoplasmic reticulum And his borrowed breathing Of Oxygen But burnished dewy stalk The patina and the talk of blades Corner appreciation And will not let him loose From feather frond Hours pass in the hearts of lilies And snap dragon eyelids Flutter and bat coyly Enticing bees Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sexy Even crunches soil between his teeth Pollen honeyed With photosynthesis atomic energy Green Dreams on Green Signed by sentient perfumery Tending roots in their fine filigree Eating Earth And dining on his soul Of Sunshine Enchantment between the heads and tips The veins of flora his blood captivates A soft furl birthed by seed And strident proclamations made by trees Even by roadside weeds He dreams on Green
