Love Poem of Flowers by Victoria Maretti
Whisper
Drop peonies in my eardrums
Sew violets under my skin
Take all my fragrance in and
Exhale
Pave a path of fuchsia petals
We’ll share baths with chrysanthemums, lilies, hydrangeas
And crown ourselves in wreaths of all the roses.
(In celebration of National Poetry Month, I am sharing a poem each day this month.)
