Lillypad of Love

My mind drifts back To red times we've had Healing happy lime laughs Revealing shining over anything sad Magical how one word from you Colors me whatever you choose From lamenting lemon to maroon All based on love so true You are my favorite song I sing you all day night long U write me pink passionate poems Invite me to dream along We don't have much in hand But rich in heart with romance By time design holding hand Spirit so cheery we freelance No bars no cars only white stars Can showcase our love bizarre We cruise like cotton clouds so vast Upon our lovely lime lilly pad.

This is a beautifully creative poem. It avoids the usual sentimentality that characterizes love poems but employs colorful images that effectively describe the experience of being in love. The "red times," "lime laughs," "lamenting lemon to maroon," "white stars," and "lovely lime lily pad." Excellent writing! Well done Karen.
