Magnolia Blossom

Magnolia blossom,
Like a shining queen you shine,
Sure of your beauty.

~ Poetictouch

Dipping and Sipping

The buzzing bee into the flower dips
And from her luscious nectar fondly sips.

~ Poetictouch

Dew-Drenched Rosebud

This dew-drenched rosebud
Ignites in me a fire
Hard to extinguish.

~ Poetictouch

A Simple Cottage

A simple cottage
On a calm secluded hill:
Here contentment dwells.

~ Poetictouch

Blooming Tuberose

Blooming tuberose,
With your enticing fragrance,
Revitalize me!

~ Poetictouch

A Lovely Summer Rose

Shall I compare you
To a lovely summer rose?
You’re far more lovely!

~ Poetictouch

The Sick Rose

O Rose thou art sick.
The invisible worm,
That flies in the night
In the howling storm:

Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy:
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.

~ William Blake
