Love is


LOVE IS.

You are not what love is all about
For you are love in all its sensitivity
As a rose is not a flower
But a sensitivity of nature, a beautiful
And a small part of the whole universe
All of nature is a memory-scent and infused
Within a depth of colourful emotion
I would love you as I love a flower
A sensitive vision, to be held and scented

One does not look at a garden
To see its rarity and lost in a soak of vision
One has to stand still at its very center
And close the eyes to gain its sense of beauty
As with love, is to stand alone in the night
And close the eyes and infuse the aroma
The whole glamorous garden of love
To bring the sensitivity of flowering love
To such brilliance that it floods the mind
And overspills in a flood of self-pity
So deep that it drowns the personality

Love is not you
It is all of nature’s growth, the nourishment
Of a sweet dream and the losing of the self
Love is a perfect amour, a protective spirit
And I shelter myself within that love
For you are my precious comfort
And if I sleep in this luxury
Then night is my darling garden’s bed
And it is your natural behaviour, your love
Which pulls the blankets up

How special to be loved as you would a flower

Indeed... And the scent of a bouquet would be exhilarating! Thank you for your comment.

Very lovely Ron, no better way to connect with nature than to sit and dream in a beautiful garden.

If I've written it once, I shall write it a million times...Loth is a very lucky man. Each flower evokes a memory's scent and so we dream on...
