Their love simmered upon a gentle range
Fanned until it burst into fiery flame
Fueled with lively passion it sparked exchange
Year upon year it couldn't be quenched or tamed
Renewed each spring like the gardenia's bloom
Sending forth blossoms, sweet scented, pure white
A love so rich the roses blushed, assumed
within their hearts, love was all lily-white
The last blossom of their gardenia fell
'pon an unplowed garden; it swiftly died
Can flames be ignited from a dry cell
once again; as 'twas in youth's blushing bride
Love hotter than habanero pepper
dried; lively scent of gardenia and myrrh

I don't do meter very well..
My husband planted some of these in our garden last year..The hottest pepper I have ever seen..I pulled one while it was green and looked at it and thought there must be something wrong with the soil here for this to look all wrinkled up and I tasted just the very tip and it wasn't too bad but I could tell that the next bite would be a killer..I told my husband that they were not hot..He pulled a red one..Well~~you know the rest of the story..

Poem written earlier..August 08, 2016
the night is barking among the dogs
moaning over the family shame
preaching to the deaf like a blind demagogue
so where’s the collector of common blame now?
something is soaring above the house
heart-shaped and half-baked
it’s slowly making us roused
there was a cadence of stars yesterday
despite the awe they’re sharp as a butcher’s knife
they flew in through walls and window panes
she tried to pick them up and she just cut her hands
and there was a strife about the afterlife
god, these boundless hours, so lurid!
moulded into this blushing bride of mine
locked in a spire by heavens so arid
stagnant in solace she’s mortal and quivering
her heart inside out and her soul on decline
I have sold my mum on E.Bay.
My god my dad was mad.
He can"t believe i did it.
He thinks it"s really bad.
As to why i did it.
There"s reasons plain to see.
My mother is on my back.
Always hassling me.
She complains about my trainers.
She says they really stink.
Moans about the dishes.
That i leave in the sink.
I never make my bed right.
She gets me in a quandary.
States that i should help.
To do the household laundry!
Then every Sunday morning.
She really goes to far.
I have to help my dad.
Wash the family car.
Yes i sold my mum on E.Bay.
Then looked to far off lands.
To find a good replacement.
Post up the wedding bands.
Dad wont be to angry.
I will soon get him on side.
Because i have sent to Thailand.
For a brand new blushing bride.
At first it was ok.
We got on really well.
Then we discovered something.
That i can hardly tell.
I hope we get a refund.
I still have the receipt.
Let me tell you something.
There has been a big deceit.
It started in the bedroom.
I had to get a fan.
To bring my poor old dad round.
Our Thai bride was a man!
I want my mother back.
No matter what the price.
I am fed up eating chicken.
Along with Thailand rice!
"Will you get out of bed,
It is a brand new day,
It is nearly twenty past."
I hear my mother say.
I start to drift awake.
Then i start to beam.
Relief it surge"s through me.
It was a nasty dream.
My mother cant explain.
Why i changed my ways.
I"m really very helpful.
Not like the bad old days.
But if i am really honest.
I suppose i am quite bad.
I have just logged on to E.Bay.
To try and sell my DAD!
Sewing machine, long idle, gathered dust
In a house where a maiden's dreams were crushed
An open seam forever left impaled
Discolored remnants of a wedding veil
Beneath a stitch in time that came too late
A silver needle sewed her final fate
A blushing bride she never was to be
A spinster was to be her destiny
The war years seemed like only yesterday'
As I gazed on the ruins and disarray
A mildewed wedding dress that stood in wait
Beneath layers of soggy tattered lace
Then beneath the leaking roof and fallen beams
I heard the humming of that old machine
As she tried to mend the dream that fell apart
The candle sputtered, spent, and all was dark

the golden fish couple eloped near the sea
finding the singing snail, they told him with glee
could you accompany us for our big day?
I’ll do better than that said the priest snail, Gray.
I will sing all the songs, and I will perform the wedding too.
Are others invited or will it just be you two?
We are having a small ceremony, said the blushing bride.
Her husband to be took her arm, and stood by her side.
But who will give you away? Gray Snail Priest said.
It can’t be my parents, she replied. They are both dead.
I will ask my wife, snail priest told them. Here she comes now.
Their wedding on the beach was an absolute wow!
Line of inquiry:
The dream seems real since we don a form,
borrowed from elements of that domain,
but if we simply chose not to conform,
we wake up when desires to rest are lain.
Unseeking Seeker
Caught in your white web of lies like black flies
Each dream a bubble bursting destroying lives
He said “I do” to more than one blushing bride
In more than one state or country claiming wives
Was watching TV when the glass ceiling broke
Illusion of solidity was a phantom a green ghost
Pictures of the women the children they tote
Your house of cards falling down a jaded joke
Fool me once silver shame on you
You made many fools saying “I do”
autumn tiptoes in
a veil of stunning colours ~
coy blushing bride beams
tiny birds chirping
squirrels spurting from nowhere ~
clouds floating sailboats
sky displays palette
of paints gathered from rainbow ~
leaves wither and fall

Drops on knee
Marry me
Select day
First of May
Choose right dress
Oh what stress!
Mother bakes
Wedding cakes
Guest’s arrive
At church drive
My bridesmaid
Is delayed
Bridal car
Wait with pa
Drive past church
Tummies lurch
Must take stock
Go round block
Let out cheer
Bridesmaid here
Blushing bride
Dad feels pride
Walk down aisle
Beaming smile
Get wed now
Repeat vow
Hymns to sing
Exchange ring
Wedded bliss
Sealed with kiss
Buffet time
Food’s sublime
Best man speaks …
Groom’s flushed cheeks!
Toasts the bride
At groom’s side
Our first dance
Such romance
Wedding night…
Pure delight!

The bride intends to trash her dress,
The why is anybody´s guess.
Apparently, today it´s hip
But I say - sweetheart, get a grip!
That gown is gorgeous, made of magic,
Harming it would just be tragic.
Swirls of fabric, sparkly belt,
Down the aisle, hearts did melt.
Think of all that time you spent
´Til, to you, ´twas evident
That this would be the one you´d wear,
A bridal gown beyond compare.
All those fittings, all that cost,
In one minute, will be lost.
Though you´ll never wear it hence,
Trashing it just makes no sense.
I beseech you, blushing bride,
Do not by this trend abide.
Wearing it brought so much joy,
Trashing it - I´ll just say Oy!
What's it like loving you
If you feel the need to ask
It's like being offered refills
Before your halfway through the glass
The freedom felt by a superhero
When he puts on the mask
That's what it's like loving you
If you feel the need to ask
What's it like loving you
Allow me to explain
It's like the first sight of your blushing bride
On your wedding day
It's like all the love you've stored up
The moment you give it away
That's what it's like loving you
Is the best way to explain
What's it like loving you
Thought you might want to know
It's like standing in the bright sunshine
And basking in it's glow
It's like hearing your favorite song
Played twice in a row on the radio
That's what it's like loving you
Thought you might want to know
