Poetry - A Passion Flower

 

 A Passion Flower

I was walking one day when it was dusk and it was hard to see through all the myst 

I began to wonder if I had made a wrong turn, or was it time to turn back to once I had come.

But something inside said you know it’s time so keep on the mysterious path and don’t you give up

There was an inner voice saying come along now, in spite of all the chaos  that has you wondering 

There is something beaconing you saying here I am, please don’t give up on me for I truly need you now

I Run through the darkened woods closer now, there was a sparkle in the distance saying don’t give up on me

I came into an opening where I saw a rare beauty that filled a field full of animals and wild flowers

There was a Passion Flower that stood out, She beamed in beauty and had that inner sense too

She looked up at me, so you’re here for me, I’m glad you believe in me and are my true love 

I am everything that you have wished for my darling,  true Passion Flower here to show you the way
