Never Before

Fay Slimm.

 

Never Before.

 

I came upon a block of pure colour.

Bewitchingly blue was the broad band 

of irises framing a cottage wall.

 

Violet blended with Lapis lazuli.

The shock took my breath and stopped 

further need for seaside walking.

 

Desire aroused passion to own.

I must sow a bed of this jeweled hue

and my empty garden adorn.

 

Iris magic shall better my move.

Never before have blooms stirred love 

into which I willing now fall.
