I shower them all with life

children grab, defying rule
time withers with them.

Burst into a cacophony of
Incandescent sounds that make
The Greek Gods chuckle and dance
Above the fragrant clouds...

we vowed to love each other
until death parts us
        the fragrance of carnations
        lingers in my memory

No question about it, beings with large craniums
Funny looking dudes
Big heads, bad moods
They also love carnations and geraniums...

two celebrations in one

delighting she was asked to cater her daughter’s wedding...

We began as roses and pink carnations
Silk and pearls surrounded us
Settling together on a cloud of joy
But then things turned ugly, and our thorns grew out
Peonies pink the spine of our book no longer...

Petite orange carrots were slipping off of her hat
Lilies and petunias said “what do you think of that?”
Roses and carnations gave a little appreciation dance.
Celery and parsley flavored a stew south of France....

Becoming musical 
at the end time, 
like a whooper’s swan.

for carnations, when 
the snow melts.

The secret,

with death.

The smell of an iris flower is like
A clean whiff of Gulf breeze,
Independent of clinging debris.

The iris is prissier than a rose;
More colorful than carnations
It is guardian of the pupil in you,
Ask the sclera.

Ethereal cloud of pink carnations and blue hydrangeas
Overtook her thoughts, turning her wispy and willing
Her caramel skin tones oozed into her Barbie dream girl mind
Silken red teddy-laden, she gave him her come hither look....

flare
of rings 
crimson sight
fount spring linger
carnations with frills rubescent frenzy 
shade the twilight in ruby-red rapture 
how do leave your
mind's richness
fit space

kissing your vibrant skin
just to feel
warmth of your
turbulent
blood
flowing river of my
culminant love
measuring the zenith
pinnacle of
passion
undulating fleeting
moment
black forests dense
bonfire of
thirst
dark red carnations...

From my window morning arrives;

Bringing a flashed ray of sunrise

Along with gold lilies

And pearl-like carnations.

Darting out, I gasp heavily

Fiery beams of heat char my skin.

we pearl like pink carnations welcomed the Irish piglet fine
He had travelled to our village through the Eager Emerald mine.
His magic tricks were amazing, his positivity a light to shine.
He uplifted the whole village and eloped with piglet Clementine....

Painted daisies, baby's breath beside roses
Chrysanthemums, carnations beside roses
Red roses beside pink roses

Still, Rose is gone; Petals fresh, ... dried, and crushed.
Dawn and dusk, and melted musk
Settle upon the dust-covered roses, covering Rose
