Gardenias' soft white flowers Release a delicate scent Young love brought me a few buds Then love was a friend The flower's essence floated From the one placed in my hair Now in winter their buds pressed Among love's pages Sponsor: Dr. Ram Mehta Contest: Dodoitsu Written: February 6, 2015 Love or humor No meter or rhyme 7,7,7,5 7,7,7,5
