Flowers Poem by katarina bowman

The breath of heaven teases my lips
With a single petal dislodge from the sky!
My love you are that single petal!

The gazing elk looks up from the pool
Blinding by one spark of light’s radiance!
My love you are that single petal! !

The peacock cries in the empty garden
For the memory of a fear outshining him!
My love you are that single petal! ! !

O petal that is my garden of delight!
O Spark that is my heart’s conflagration!
O Tear that is my swelling ocean of sorrow!
My love you are that single petal! ! ! !
