Wafting Wildflower Musings

You whispered so gently when you tucked violets behind my ear
as we writhe on a bed of windswept  poppy petals,      the earth moved
the sun shone on your face whilst the moon dipped in our sighs,

that was the last time I felt your warmth aside me
yet in the stirring chill of unfurled dark November mornings,
I can still smell the wafting scent of wildflowers in my hair

This is so heart wrenching, stunning and just beautiful. There is so much emotion to it.

"as we writhe on a bed of windswept poppy petals, the earth moved
the sun shone on your face whilst the moon dipped in our sighs,"

-- wow Frieda, you write some amazing lines that just blow my mind.... This is what I call perfection.

I love this except for the word 'windswept'. I got stuck on that, think it would read better if you took that word out, but the rest is really nice!

[Frieda P]

Ha if it's not zephyr, it's windswept, you have a problem with weather references me thinks ;-)

[Mark]

It just reads better. IMO.

[Pryde Foltz]

Isn't funny. Sometimes, you can indeed smell them or a scent of familiarity. Lovely write.

[Frieda P]

Indeed Pryde, thanks muchly....

[MsJewel]

Beautiful artwork and places you took me in your words. The smell of wildflowers in a woman hair and a warm day. Paradise for the ages. Thank you for the amazing poetry.

Such scented reverie in this poem. The stunning fragrance of it all weaves a feeling of peace and love to anyone who reads it. It is a gorgeous poem my friend.
