Looking at him is like looking through a kaleidoscope
He feeds my fascination with
all of his beautiful colors
His body full of light and sound
I love his brown eyes
Their glorious depth that draws me in
Their shape, their shade
His chocolate , his mahogany, his cinnamon
Warm cherry against his honey skin
he lights up , a diety in the summer sun
smiles to me softly like a dream
My eternal muse
My bellflower blue and lemon cream
His hearts a prism in the palm of my hands
Polished crystalline pristine
White Diamond Bellflower, shiny marble lady
Dance with me in the cemetery, in the world of death
You are a transparent marble, a beautiful creature of my mind
Just dance and dance, otherworldly music is playing, it comes from my heart
I left the human life, I left my life, give me your hand and live in my mind
Be a part of my fantasy, it never dies, dance with me in the universe’s mind
Be a dancer in my sad soul, in my tired heart, give me a life, give me your life, be my heart
Put life into my dead life, I want to be your garden, be my flower in the garden of my forest park
Diamond Bellflower, I hear your chords, I hear your singing, I hear your sigh, I hear the beating of your heart
I won't keep you forever in my heart, I close you into my heart, in the safe of my heart, You are my diamond, your heart is the light in my mind
Show the way in my blind life, be my eternal light, please, stay with me, touch my icy heart,
glacial blood flows in my heart, my soul is a steel cold mind. Be my forever shining sun, Eternal Flowerlight
Begun as a small worm
Before a silk cocoon
Becomes more colorful
Beating its wings to spring
By and between sucks its
Blossoms to Bellflower
Blackberry, Bluebonnet…

From winter shadow
oh, farewell to snow
bare tree
now, your green leaves grow
and soft breezes blow
carefree ...
buds bloom with gusto
oh, sweet spring hello ...
woes flee
Garden filigree
songs by chickadee
flower ...
hummingbird' s three
and a buzzing bee ...
shower
is the secret key
for a flower to be ...
tower
Oh, sweet bellflower
purple coneflower
just flow
swaying sunflower ...
like a wildflower
rainbow
floating windflower
each sublime flower
aglow

I wanted to add purple to my garden, she said.
She was lucky to have me, I thought in my head.
What about catmint, hydrangea, or meadow rue?
She looked confused, like she did not know what to do.
There is always lavender, corydalis, alluring allium too.
She took a step back and landed heavily on my shoe.
Spiderwort, mist flower, violet, anise, I suggested to her.
She did not respond fast, so I mentioned lupine, so pure.
How do you know so much about flowers, she asked me.
I don’t know, I guess I have grown up with them naturally.
Verbena, leading lady plum and bellflower might be the way…
She screamed, turned on her heel, and ran squarely away.

Butterflies flit from flower to flower
Sipping happily its nectar power,
Colours attractive in the cool bower
Bewitches them when the heavens shower,
Blooms of sweet aromatic bellflower
Smile when butterflies sit on nose tower.
