Head, Tail and Heart

The dawn is fragrant with a ruby rose,
the sunset smells as somnolent as blue 
night violets... In fragrance they compose
its head and tail but heart belongs to you.

Ah, the fragrance and beauty of such a love, the dawn’s ruby rose, the sunset’s blue violets and everything in between. A romantic and enrapturing excerpt, Kurt. Best wishes for a win and warmest wishes for you always my inspiring friend.. ~Susan
