Panagiota Romios Poet Couplet

Roses and Lace

Time to snuggle with a spring bouquet of roses and lace.
Snuggle them to your beautiful, tranquil face.

Sipping some cool jasmine tea, with no regard for hours.
Nay, the world with its endless exhortations to grimness and 
tearful showers.

A sorrow, shuts down a poet's soul.
It's time right now, to let all of it go.

Be in stillness with your God, who removes sadness.
Hence, comes sun, joy and unspeakable gladness!

Blessing Panagiota mou, Jennifer. Panagiota Romios April 18, 2020 at 12:04 PM Jennifer Mou, good you enjoyed this! What a lovely compliment. BTW~ I sent you a Soupmail a few days back.

Sam Kauffman April 16, 2020 at 2:49 PM Panagiota, joy does come in the morning. You have created such a serene atmosphere with "cool jasmine tea,""snuggle with a spring bouquet," "roses and lace" - a true bower where the poet's spirit can abide with God. Thank you for this wonderful picture of a place to retreat. Panagiota Romios April 16, 2020 at 8:05 PM Hello Sam~ wow~ such a poetic and thoughtful response!! I really thought that nobody would like this. As usual, I am so off! I favored the Romeo and Juliet, far more. See! I was so wrong. What I favor and what poets respond to, are two different issues. Thank you, Sam Panagiota xx
