A Garland of Flowers

-Lulu Gee-

 

‘Neath skies that remember

the fall of my feet,

from now ‘til September

through amorous heat,

as warmer days harden

and red blushes gold

a-bloom in the garden

pale lustres take hold.

 

A garland of flowers

this morning for you,

a glisten from showers

soft yellow and blue

as dawn gloried cover

for rose to unfold,

like lover to lover

seek warmth from the cold.

 

The blossoms I gather,

this poem I rhyme

come sooner than later

to perish in time -

my rhymes like the flowers

unbidden I strew,

these restless spent hours

I offer to you!
