Love
"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life. The word is love." Sophocles, Greek Poet
In a garden of whispering twilight
Silent love story swiftly sprouts and grows
The lilies sway with secrets each dark night
Their fragrance drifts in the moonlight and flows
The daisies tell of innocence in dreams
Where the sun's golden fingers cast forth rays
Those shy violets lie next to a stream
Beneath the wispy, weeping willow's ways
Rich, regal orchids in bold colors bright
Perfumed jasmine lingering like a sigh
Recites verses of passion day 'til night
Singing love's endurance under the sky
Wander through this garden, let your heart stray
Where poetry of flowers bloom each day
