F is for: FLOWERS IN YOUR HANDS


Lady Flower, every time you appear before me with flowers in your hands, you make my eyes beautiful.

Breathe upon me your divine secrets and I will gently reveal the mystery of love through my humble countenance.

Feed me with your kindness and mercy in the poverty of my dreams until grateful tears fall from my loving eyes.

Permit my soul to be engulfed with thoughts of only you and let my solitude be transformed into an eternal love of fire and glory.

Caress this withered rose in my heart until the beauty of life defeats death in the name of divine love.

My darling, bid farewell to loneliness and come to me with sweet surrender while flowers dance in your feminine hands.

  4. So moving and romantic, Andy! I especially loved the line: "Caress the withered rose in my heart until the beauty of life defeats death in the name of divine love." This gave me goosebumps, or, more specifically, "God-bumps" when I read this line.
    Thank you for sharing your exquisite poetry and Jan's amazing photo!
    Blessings!

  8. Andy, I am amazed, I popped in from gmail and I can view the entire post. I will do this again to see it it works.I have been fighting for weeks with these blogs. I am so happy you used the photo and very humbled by your words and friends comments.
    You write beautiful words Andy, you have the power to make me weep, or smile. I credit you with bringing the romance back to my heart, I was once cold and hard, I have melted and become soft and mushy...lol (course Randy might have had a little to do with it too!) Love to you!
