Roses and Rainbows
( Free Verse)
What a truly ravishing thing our
love was my darling, you crowned
my whole world with perfumed roses and
wondrous rainbows.
To be the idol of one\'s idol, what could be more
perfect. Our lips touched and we became
one kiss, we made love and we
owned the universe.
How then, can I not smile, when I think
of the first time you came to me. Clad in
starlight, you stepped right out of my
restless hope filled dream.
Living without each other, we said,
would be like living without the sun.
Today I smiled, as I picked a rose from our
beautiful garden and felt the warmth of \'your sun
wrapping itself around me.
A soft breeze laced with your heavenly essence,
gently teased and lifted the hem of my white
cotton dress,
and do you know what darling,
I could have sworn that
rose,
smiled back
at me.
