Songbirds in your garden sing

.

*Honeybees, birds and blooms unfurl

an enchanting spell

when spring comes by here

 

Memories waft 'neath burled rustic trellis

where flowered tendrils grasp fleshly

like the newness a love once tenderly embraced

 

Songbirds in your garden sing

of swooning memories rapture.., of velvet eyes,  

the fragrant spicy nectar hidden within her walls                            

 

A song of honeyed bees'  sweetest stinger,

and the poignant ***** of intoxicating surrender

lingers, bemused spellbound by a thorny heirloom rose

 

Sharp beauty beloved like a blameless trap

caught blissfully, breathlessly inbetween

all you wish for and all your wanton needs

 

Desire 's wellspring an unspoken passion

coquet swollen buds adorn blossoming,

sensual, untamed carnal grace

 

A picture perfect natural beauty;

sunlit chassé … feathered brush, demure blush

dancing with basket of lace petal’d perfume

 

For to colour a heart's blank pages

rapt in the poesy a joyous ecstasy ..,

enrapture with rainbow's luscious taste

 

What seems lost is but a tender vestige unfound

a passing moments innocence lost

to steal away like rumors of gold

 

These silent reveries seep from a hole in my heart,  

as if ripe strawberries of yore, gently weeping sweetness

when pricked by a thorny rose  

 

The ides of spring do still bleed a timeless ache

onto the page ... sweet naivety stung

by a mesmerizing dart to the heart

 

Songbirds in your garden do sing

of sweetest things immersed in nature's nectar

blissful memories sleeping in the petals of a rose*

Notes

If only now in dreams of yore

a sky full of stars shine brighter,

a garden of flowers fragrance more pungent,

and songbirds in your garden from yesteryear

sing tantalizingly more beautiful ...,

when you were near
