the raindrops cling to your velvet petals
and i am reminded of ballroom gowns
with satin sashes and ruffled skirts–
those dresses of dreams
and fantasy and childhood fairy stories
that still haunt the halls of memory
with forgotten echoes of romance
and misty mirages of everlasting love

So imaginative. So lovely 🙂

That is so funny Jodi. I suppose because we live in the same area, we are exposed to the same flowers blooming around us. I find it really interesting to see how two people can view very similar things and yet express their wonder in separate ways. Very cool. 🙂
