*a Devoted Gardener Of Love And Beauty

Rating: 3.4


I looked upon her beauty as a flower
I hesitated to pinch her from her stem
Instead I planted myself next to her
Where I too have flourished in a sense…..

Dedicated to my wife

This poem is short, And so beautiful. But they are no words no one could ever add to it. From the beginning to end Your love is so true to Her. Its a master piece of Her Love much respect I give you for that

Very cute. I get the picture of someone strolling through a meadow and being stopped by a lovely flower, not plucking it but instead sitting next to it in order to continue enjoying it.
