Rhapsodic Roses

Posted on Sep 14, 2016 by lavendermoongirl

Rhapsodic roses

Tumbling from pergolas

Showering our senses with

Aromatic essences;

Dreamy marshmallow,

Teeny fairy dancers,

Sprinkles of sherbet,

So tangy with a hint of lemon curd;

Silky peach petals so delightful,

Fluttering in buttery summer light.

  And bees. I always get pricked by a little thorn when I’m deadheading or pruning.

  Thank you. So will I, but when I close my eyes the warmth, colours and smells of summer days remain.

      I know. I mourn summer and cherish it until it comes again and warms my face. 🙂

  Thanks Morgan. Sometimes, I just close my eyes, enjoy the gorgeous natural aromas and just write…from the ‘nose’ ! 🙂
