Poems About FlowersLady’s Favor
by Michael R. Burch

and shed her dress;
companionless,
she shivers—nude, forlorn.

ice skate scrapes -
flecks of flakes.
the snow queen
before her relentless
reign, a pretty thing.
her smile warms

AmbushedI had always adored purple lilacs, and never could get enough,
As wildflowers bloom abundantly, although times may get rough.
They had graced a backyard garden, that I'd known in childhood,
On a tree lined street of birdsong,...

My Twilight Dream Catcher My twilight Dream Catcher.
Sweet melodies tug at my heart strings.
The waves roll in as the blue whale sings.
As empty moonbeams fade,
In the cosmos evenly laid.
Layers of complexity.
Clouds meandering are a formality.
A tonic of love, a...

A Walk Through the TreesBirdwatching had become for me, such pleasurable summertime hobby,
So I was often among the trees, young ones or those old and knobby.
I chased rose finches at dawn, and the yellow warblers come noon,
Scarlet flycatchers...

Lessons Learned
On the edge of the leaf, spinning,
Out of control, glistening
Slowly dancing – a waltzlike trembling,
glad to see the hesitation of colors,
graceful as sun’s reflection on the waters,
lakes of melancholic, drifting
soundless and soothed by the twisting,...

Awaking From Stupor
When the enchanted
jailors of life,
siezed my soul
and those
sepals unfurling
manipulative
manuscripts
ceased to
script a twinkle
above screams,
I became a
slave to my
own silence,
chained by
granite wings of
masked butterflies,
