'Tis Love...

'Tis Love...

An array of flowers each its own blessed story
Blooms of color God's grace in loving glory
A Rose with petals, a velvet caress
A Sunflower holding light and happiness
An Iris with drama and mystery
A Daisy with joyful frivolity
'Tis earth and beauty that lovingly meet
Such delicate splendor and fragrance sweet
A flower within be it of perpetual grace
Within chambers of heart 'tis love to place.

Gifted to me... Wondrous Beauty

A loving thought brought my way
A flower gifted to me this very day
Such beauty and bloom in travels be sought
And to one's heart Italy be brought
Passion's color and light be known
Wondrous beauty be it shown.

Thank You Matt

Love,
Rose Marie
