Amidst sweet scented woodruff;
In rambled briar sprawl
Prickly and wandering tall....

budding on the lilac trees
tiny purple blossoms
cluster of floral delight
fill the crisp air in springtime.

sweet scented aroma, grave companions
deep Mahogany, blood stains, velvet touch

                                      the sweet scented spring

Sweet scented blossom
Perfume fills the air
Rejuvenating the world with colour
Irises wave in the wind like purple flags
New life everywhere
Get out and enjoy the spring sunshine!

Purple plumes dangle amid the verdigris
the sweet-scented Wisteria Kapitan
a footbridge of Feng Shui dreams
enraptures my inner child's spirit.

Blossoming buds buttress beauty
as scarlet shades share, ruby reds
and assorted alabaster.
Pastel pink petals, chic colors,
and sun-splashed, glistening green leaves
enhances each sweet-scented step;
through this prim picturesque pathway....

The beauty of woman shone in her eyes,
And sweet scented lavender called my name,
As silent kisses began another game.
My mind so lost where her beauty is found,
As whispers trailed into those plaintive sighs,
Revealing her breath is the only sound.

Sweet scented memories of spring ~ flowers flourish and streams sway in tune 

sultry sky shimmers 
like gleaming gold beaming bright ~
light rain braves the sun 

Songbirds sing a marvelous melody 
In flow of rhyming rhapsody 
The roses glow a shiny silver 
Sweet swans swim  across the river

Sweet scented, star shaped, 

Summer sedative, silky spike 

Shines with its short stature  

Sign of sensuality and suppleness 

Supports spirits, slashes stress

Scents and colognes made from it

Small, lovely, luminous jasmine, the

Special choice of beloved-hearts

Towers of Bees

Over the city forest trees
Are hives of bees buzzing
In cubicle stacked towers with plastic flowers,
They labor for no honey, but money.

At an approximate five they fly
For they must eat and fill cool sheets,
To dream of bowers of sweet scented flowers,
When a cubicle is their own – their home...

Ripples of joy
Pleasure primes ploy


Set surprise swing
Face feisty fling


Now once again
Prize precious pain


Know what to do?
Fate corners you


Time to go now
Yes you know how


Sweet scented space
Feel funny face


Rich ripples ring
Hear telling things

The waxing sun of April shines
Where once the woods of winter pined;
Now trilliums and columbines
Exult; where snow once lay, now find
Sweet-scented honeysuckle twined.

Where rime ran rife, where cold was keen,	
Unfurling ferns of freshest green
Now burst beneath the budding trees,
And fragrant flowers of eglantine
Are bending in the brimming breeze....

A sparkling web with pearls of morning dew,
Sweet-scented rose or rainbow up above,
Will make me pause remembering God's love
As nature's free delights bring joy anew.

Buttercup,daisy and cowslip
Together mix in fellowship;
Swaying pelts of grasses fine
Bask in Spring sunshine.

Purple vetch,ribwort plaintain
Jostle lush clover in English rain;
Scalious,burnets protude,
Butterflies gorge their pollen food.

Hawthorn dense and tough
Amidst sweet scented woodruff;
In rambled briar sprawl
Prickly and wandering tall....
