Robert Lindley Poet Sonnet

Your Beauty, Aromatic Fragrance of Roses In Full Bloom

Your Beauty, Aromatic Fragrance Of Roses In Full Bloom

Your warmth , rests in sweet tenderness covering my aching heart
your beauty, aromatic fragrance of roses in full bloom.
Our fate, love far more than gleaming stars on astrology chart
each hot night we dance in tingling rhapsody in our bedroom.

As green sprouts shooting forth in colorful life every new Spring
we bask in glowing sunspots to warm our hearts and fill our sails.
Red-lip kisses and gentle touch invigorate and bring
romance for the ages and all each sensual night that entails.

New dawn , your scent wakes me to an angel resting sweetly there
never again will my heart seek greater than what I have now.
Your angelic face and gentle heart, surely fairest of fair
I found you in my long search and won your love I know not how!

Where racing sprouts shoot forth into colorful life every Spring
your red-lip kisses and daring nighttime dancing makes me sing.

Casarah Nance April 25, 2016 at 8:31 PM awww... this is probably the sweetest thing ever written, you just made me go all mushy... "never again will my heart seek greater than what I have now." This is a great romance from a great pen. A pleasure to read. :)
