Richard Lamoureux Poet Free verse

She Passes Me a Rose

"Last Night I dreamt"
I came "unglued"
"Entangled"
"Lost in the world of Lonely"

"Coming out of the shadows"
I viewed "a dozen roses multiplied"
I walked "through your garden"
Witnessed your "smile"
My "girl rising"
"Releasing the darker me"

You pass me a "lavender rose"
My "appreciation magnified"
"Pieces of me" realign
You have always been my "best medicine"
I awake "blanketed in joy"

It's all in the Titles Contest
