Oh my Gemini wall flower, I wonder how your buds blossom, as fragile florets yearn for foundations, encouraging their roots to bloom. If I should sow you into erratic earth, suspicious sun might suppress its love, relentless rain may suffocate your air, with wicked winds stripping your petals. So I will hold you in my hands, compassionately caress your soul. Implant you in my heart, so my love can cultivate you - protecting you from the storm. Empathetic eyes will gaze, enchanted by your elegance, lost within the tranquillity of your rare radiant scent. Oh my Gemini wall flower, you may be a lotus or a rose, it does not matter much to me. Simple Musing Silent One 12 March 2018

Well expressed in this wonderful poem. I think we like to protect many from the storms of life yet hide what we really feel inside. love phyl

Self love is vital and to be protected at all costs. If only we could be born with that prior knowledge.

I certainly love the Gems in my life, and you're one of them. Beautifully written - and great song choice by the way. The flower duet is very nostalgic for me. "relentless rain may suffocate your air, with wicked winds stripping your petals." They need their freedom to breathe and flourish!"as fragile florets yearn for foundations" Such a gorgeous line. Always, Laura

I like that song, "Scent of Magnolia" by David Sylvian. Haven't listened to your song here yet. Must do.

This is so beautiful for a simple musing SO, I looked and read this two ways, Gemini Wall flower could be an actual flower or a romantic piece about your lady, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, take care......Vera

Thank you, it is a self reflective poem.. Wallflower is a metaphor for one's body and gemini a starsign...
