Once Upon Bliss

A time before hurricanes, when
tempests were ardently intoxicating 
and fuchsia roses blushed
beneath fervently lit moons, 
unfurling lovers' persuasions
once upon bliss 'fore hurricanes

The tender beauty of a "fuchsia rose" may overcome the brute strength of a hurricane! Vivid images, powerful message dear, Paloma!
