It Happened On a Misty Morning

Wettened by the mornings dew 
Closely spaced where rows of roses grew 
Footprints stained the cobblestone 
Where my love and I had walked, alone

As we walked sweetly, side by side 
My teeming love, I could not hide 
As I poured her with warm embrace
Her misty breath blew on my face

It happened on a misty morning collaboration poetry contest 
5th place
