First Date

Sunrise I rise. Today THE day. First date My wait. Nerves tense Lose sense. Mind swims On dreams. I search Rose bunch. Florist Shows list. Red rose I choose. Sunset I’m set. She comes Breeze hums. Says Hi Pitch high. Sound wafts My heart. Flower Charms her. Fingers fold She holds. Thorn pricks She shrieks. Rose wilts Date splits. October 31, 2017. For Brian Strand's Contest All Yours (Mar 23)
