Perhaps

Perhaps
I’ve seen too much
Of the “big picture” world
At times I feel as though I’ve
Tried swimming up the Red River
So much I cannot affect by passionate
Breath or beating heart or even perfect logic
I just want today to photograph a simple flower
She is the best of models well rooted and unassuming
This white one stands still and opens her arms wide
Embracing my lens with a touch coolly sweet
Her red heart beats only for me now
A golden soul streaming out
Laying seductively
On a bed of
Verdant
Hope

Artful showcase for a paper delicate flower.
All I can say, Paul, is a simple “Wow.” The verse is exquisite – the photograph is beautiful! Thank you! Although the day has barely begun, this is one of the gifts of the day for me.
This is so beautiful, so thoughtful and exquisite. Very touching.
