John Gondolf Poet Rondeau

Imaginary Flowers

Imaginary flowers bloom
within my mind, and thoughts assume,
like notions blowing through the trees
poetic whispers in the breeze,
love incubates within heart’s womb.

Poetic dreams, my thoughts presume
that hopes within my mind consume
bad mem’ries of demise, like these
     imaginary flowers.

Love’s once bad luck I did entomb,
but now emotions I exhume
to find poetic dreams that please
for such a dream puts hearts at ease,
and so within my thoughts now bloom
     imaginary flowers.
