Fragrant the Petals

Fragrant the petals Time moves so quickly the sun comes to play Caressing my thoughts on this cold winter day Soon it will follow the path of my dreams While looking for flowers along gentle streams A dozen or more by the waters a’ flow Fragrant the petals this morning to show That this day is special as one I do care Is waiting my poem, my words here to share For she says she’s never it’s hard to believe A Valentine message her heart to receive So here I have penned her a wondrous bouquet Of poetic flowers so that I may say You’ve touched me in ways I have not known before Inspired my smile, my laughter and more So now I must ask you if that would be fine If you would agree to be my Valentine

I have missed you and sensed you while longing for more of the above and the knowledge that you and your world are okay. Please be okay, or even better. Your still pen leaves a gap full of longing here on Soup but be and do as you need be and do, just know you're thought of. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
