One Word

You are the evening star
appearing in the velvet sky
glowing bright in dimming dusk
You are the sunflower
growing wild in a carefully

tended garden of white roses
You are the smooth pebble
nestled in the sand
on a stretch of beach
The first fresh drops of rain
after sweltering heat in
the drought of arid desert
You are the slice of lime
in the cocktail, pink
the flickering flame

in coal darkness of
long lonely nights
You are the single

word on a virgin page
of pure blanc

A beautiful and lovely poem.
I like how you compare her (I assume it's about a girl) to the not-so-subtle things. Apart from the star in the night sky, every other comparison is fresh and admirable.
The last bit where you compare her to a single word on a virgin page, is my favourite and it makes me wonder what that word could is.

Good job.

This would og well over bongos and a nice mocha, in a poorly lit coffee house.

one word; being the only thing in existence out of place. what's one word on a blank page; nothing if not beautiful. it stands out. it's like the "evening star" or the "smooth pebble." this is a fantastic write!

You are the brightest star in heavens realm
The nectar from the sweetest flower
For the very fragrance of love you are
And you are the world to me,

Bravo what a tapestry you weave
