She Was a Rare Flower Desperately Sought

She Was A Rare Flower Desperately Sought

Soft, magnificent and colorful little flower,
So small and gentle in your beautiful bower,
Days of warm sunshine grace your pretty head
And some do prefer bright red roses instead
Yet, there is majesty in your sweet, simple glow
And waiting applause for your every show.

A grace that wraps all of your soft heart,
And a divine touch upon your every part,
Should we examine with a questioning eye
That beauty , sweet as a sunny blue sky:
Inspiring gleams of your blossoms of gold
Those splashes of epic colors so very bold!

A love deep and tender calls out your name
And my heart begs hard to ever be in your game!

May 7th, 1980

Note:  Caught but not ever to be held too long.
She left in a cloud, singing her happy song.
I that remember so fondly her every touch,
Do even now , still miss her smile so much.

Note: Can not write today, thus present another oldie
I hope you may enjoy this one as it was written about 
a real beautiful girl. One I had briefly on my arm 
but Fate cried out -no, she deserves better than you..
