Profuse With Blooms

My heart bled as the chainsaw ran
As the sap spilled forth from the roses onto the ground
I felt violated just as they
Soon they would have been profuse with blooms

Smile!? ~ Amid a certain light in empathies touch, I could feel "Your Beautiful 'Heart & Soul,'" rising from this paintings vibrantly deep colours and hues; a sign of a truly gifted poetess, indeed ~ And this truth unto my own humbled self once more says that, "Yes, 'Your Beauty,' Belongs Amid 'The Stars Sooo Bright!!!'" ~ love, Always, christopher ~
