Through Blooms of Passion

Drowning in oceans of full-grown orchids and smoke through my lover's eyes, each bloom becomes a forest, of water-colored amber. My epiphany, eyes now closed, remembering thoughts of firelight, vintage wine-- nights holding misty kisses ....and stars a fount of petals. One Or Two Tanka Contest Sponsor: Rick Parise
