As You Who Had No Toil

The rosebud has little to do
Just drink its fill of waters
From the strong sturdy vine that's true
Kissed by dew that matters

And enjoy the kiss of sunlight
Upon woven petals
Open  little each day that's bright
Sun radiant aerials

When opened sufficient indeed
Host a party to bees
Butterflies who on nectar feed
Won't even run from me

Like they are glued to your nectar
Petals are to full extent
Begin to fall of your vector
When petals gone your scent

On petals linger to be stored
In jar_ pressed for oil
Then I would want to be used
As you who had no toil

Smile ~ "This Is Amazingly Beautiful 'Dear Beautiful Sara Kendrick!!!'" ~ One can Always feel inside themselves when another poet brushes from the depths of "Their Beautiful Souls" &, there are not many things within this life which can compare to such "Magnificent Splendour" if at all, this, sweetened nectar flowing through the veins of the readers deepest of hearts; this is what "Your Treasures" have done this day with "This Beautiful Gem!!!" ~ ....Cont:)

Enjoyed reading this poem. I love to watch the flowers bloom and watch the insects come to get their nectar. Makes me enjoy the summer so much and now we have only a few warm days left or maybe not. God Bless Phyl
