Poetry - An Enchanted Universe


An Enchanted Universe

Once upon a time I was walking along,
On a road that seemed to lead nowhere.

There were signs, here and there,
But, all I could see was confusion.

It was dark and time to stop for a bit,
I stumbled off that beaten track.

I landed in a field full of wild flowers,
Hmm, I picked up one just to smell and know.

I kissed it with my lips upon the petals,
It exploded with life to change me forever.

A Love Flower, truly in all her glory,
Delicate, beautiful in each and every way.

Once I opened my eyes, accepting it all,
Everything became so crystal clear.

When you find your very own Love Flower,
You'll know exactly what love is all about,
And find happiness that lasts for a lifetime.

A special sonnet and poem written for my
own precious Love Flower, Nicole Lynn.

To celebrate her birthday on June 19th
And to tell her why I truly love her from
my very heart and soul.
