Perfumed Romantic Bower

Best Romantic Poem 12/13/24 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perfumed Romantic Bower Twilight calls me with a soft amber light, Into delicate scents of memory, To a fragile bower of fragrant nights Your saffron smile, a perfumed mystery. Through gossamer hues of incense demur, Fantasies flutter like silken moonbeams, When we sip the honeyed nectar of myrrh, And savor sweet spices in whispered dreams. Scents of tuberose merge with star jasmine, Draw us into this garden’s scented glen Where the pulsing of bluebellvines entreat Enchantment from your flute song sung again. Love’s dulcet scent of ambrosia transcends Our perfumed garden, harmony ascends.

Another excellent love sonnet that didn't make the list. It's beautiful, Sam. Wish the contest had been a standard one.

Dear Sam, How could I not love this sensory experience reading your wonderful words. "Love's dulcet scent of ambrosia transcends." So harmonious and enchanting. It is funny that I am currently writing a Christmas poem that includes many scents of herbs. We must be on the same wave length. Merry Christmas, My Friend, Daniel
