With a bright color...

Falls to the ground undisturbed,
Then floats on the wind....

They set their clocks by flower petal
As they open or close-
Bethlehem Star,Sowthistle
Julap,Field Marigold
or scented Evening primrose...

Became distinguished each flower petal, 
And with many people they may mettle; 
Soil sticking; 
Some picking, 
Then laid on ground and soon did settle.

one nurturing mesmerizing drop of water
rainbow colors with a gleam of diamond on the side
flower petal held her up, loving her, saving her, wanting her
in best way...

A flower petal falls
The words are spoken
It's all she's ever wanted
A kiss in the rain completes it all
Her world is complete, her forever is here
He takes it back, moves on fast
Leaving her broken on the floor
The final petal falls...

My love is a flower
unfolded and symmetrical
decidedly delectable.

My love is a petal
seamless and silent
to a touch softly compliant.

My love is perfume
I am wont to consume
when it graces a room.

My love is a vision
of supernal design
who , thank God,
is gloriously mine....

I am there
 In love
And you are there
 With love
Wings of love of two
like an image
 over a mirror
In a light of morn
like  morrow's dew
on flower petal
You are moon 
Of night
over lunar river
I am there 
In love 
You are there 
with love
like a leaf on flow
With blow of spring
In a love spring
wings of 2 in love
In a breeze of love
with breeze of spring...

Go out in the pre-dawn

After the night has gone to sleep

Before the morning wakes

Touch the Dew on the flower petal

Taste it, now you know

The freshness of water when the earth was new

Listen! 

The only sound is natural

Wind through grass, trees

Insects and Frogs sending messages

See!

Light, nature’s alarm clock

Calling all creatures to their daily work...

A flower petal
Bloomed out against sky dancing ...
Humming bird hoovers

Wings and heart posing
On a pinnacle of leaf ...
The eye snapshots love

Leaking through slow leaves
Shadowing the humming wings ...
Hibiscus with wine.

Poised on wing, air still
Honey in the flowers heart ...
The humming bird feeds.

A broken gem spills
From flowers dripping with sunlight ...
The humming bird flies

Green leaves listless languor lushly suspended

Dew glistening on grassy fields in early morn

Breeze gathering, cumulous clouds upended

Sun's rays burning through atmosphere's haze, reborn

Sweet corn on the cob gracing street vendors' stalls

Ice cream creations on cones piled up so tall

Love's blossoms on flower petal arrangements

Bridal showers, joyous wedding engagements

Your flower petal lips are carnivorous,
ever-ready and always famished; 
I long to be what will satiate you,
leaving you all swollen with desire;

Ever-ready and always famished,
I’ll lead you to blissful exhaustion;
Scorching’s kind of what I’m into;

I long to be what will satiate you,
as we eagerly satisfy each other;
Blood tends to whet an appetite;

Leaving you all swollen with desire,
careful what you bait with that trap;
A fly can also be a bit menacing....
