Charmed Chaos
Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
Wilting
Color bleeding from wilting roses
meeting their early demise
in the blistering bold sun
fading to black and fragile white
scattering their remains in flowery beds
like discarded robes of impassioned lovers

Wilting petals connecting to discarded robes of impassioned lovers….a mental connection reminding me of the metaphysical poets read in my 11th/12th grades of school…
