Judy Konos Poet Free verse

You'Ve Got Mail

Forever etched within the meadows of my mind you stood silent in wait of me
amid the flowering Lithrope, snuggled deep beside ornamental irons, I did watch
only to find your eyes waver fearful a passerby may intrude upon your pounding heart 
I must be courageous in God's glorious garden or forever be hollow and set aside 

The sun and breeze kiss a Paulownia tree sending the leaves lovingly onto my path
crushing phlox and coneflowers beneath my feet I muster courage ambling forward
to meet the most beloved creature I've  ever beheld, the same I seek forgiveness from
" I love you please allow time to know me further than empty words on a screen"

Paul Callus September 5, 2015 at 3:09 PM This is creative, especially when comparing the title to the content of this poem, Judy! #7 Have to admit I had not heard of a Paulownia tree (in fact I looked it up); playing around with words: I, Paul, own a tree:) ~ paul Judy Konos September 5, 2015 at 6:07 PM Sounds like your leaves are flying around all over the place...and now I shall take my leave...thanks for stopping by....AND always good to hear from you especially now that you are a talking tree!
