Fairy Iris, For Lauren

Delicate flower reaching for the azure sky you stand so alone. You search for your truth in the company you seek from those around you. Always surrounded, yet always alone, lonely, you keep to yourself. Your fragile beauty belies the pain in your heart, and your need for love. Pastel colors mask your false insecurities filling you with doubt. Needlessly hurting, the answer lies before you yet your quest goes on. White, gold, lavender, what beauty could surpass you? Deep green, Lauren's eyes. 05/01/15

these are lovely. I am finally seeing some early haiku you had posted. I see you love comparing women to flowers! What can I compare a man to now?? That's a more difficult dilemma. Hey, thanks for the sweet comment about my first place win with October sky. You are becoming a new fave poet of MINE!
