Loveletter to a Flower

(Part silly. Part serious. But fun to write.)

My beloved – if I may be so bold as to presume your feelings for me mirror mine for you. My beloved, my eyes are captured by your blossoms – deep rose touched by highlights of white and purple – and cannot look away.

Your scent intoxicates me, urges me to close my eyes, draw scandalously close and drink in each lingering note.

I desire to slide a finger along your ruffled edge but know I should resist. And yet … Just one touch, my Beloved, along the softness of your dew-speckled petal and I will count myself among the blessed.

Our time is short but know I will carry this moment in my heart and memory always.

-signed, with love and all respect
