Drifting on the wildborne
The scent of the rose, that calls me
I remember – it is a lovely day to be lonely
Going as I, going, must
Imagine flowers in your eyes
And crowns in your sleep
But for the scent of the rose, that calls me
I would be tumbling in sunshowers
Breathing wheat-warm breath
But drifting on the wildborne
I remember – it is a lovely day to be lonely

Elizabeth,
It has been farm far too long since you posted. I have missed you very much, although by the evidence of this poem you have not lost any of your ability! It has just got better!

It has indeed been a long time! I actually think my poetry has gotten fairly rusty, but thank you, John 🙂
