Securely sheathed within herself
She submits to you, a look inside
Her tender, emotional health
You see the colors of her mind
Travel slowly and enjoy the view
Accept her offer, slip even closer
Fragrant scent and tangerine hues
Whispered from our divine composer
Amongst moulding of verdant leaves
A bashful creation, you’ve witnessed
Folded, is best, she may believe
Yet, she unburdened, is your intention

Tis because I am far too bashful to be myself, so I became a quick study. xx It is called… displacing one’s character. 😉 However, I do love writing this way.

Okay, showing my ignorance again — what is this beauty? I can’t tell if it’s growing on the ground or on a tree, either. Oh, and while you’re at it, what kind of “fragrant” is its scent? See, I’m being all literal today, and I’m eager to soak up some knowledge — but while I’m at it, I must say, Audrey, this is a stunning word picture!!

This is a hibiscus, Debbie. Its a tropical flower you’ll find in abundance here in southern Texas and especially in Galveston, which is where I found her yesterday. (It’s too bad a proper photographer didn’t take the picture. She was quite pretty.) Many of her fellow blossoms were open and I’ll share one here, as well. Her scent…well flowery, I suppose. I’d have to think about it. I’m glad you enjoyed this poem, my friend.
LikeLike
Really? Well, okay, thanks! I’ve actually seen hibiscus, only they’ve been in open bloom and are usually of the red or pink variety — with extra-long yellow stamens(?). I should’ve guessed they’d show up in other colors and sizes. We don’t typically have them here, but they’re pretty prolific down south. Lucky you, to see them now — hey, want some snow??!

Yep…the stamen is alive and well in the other photo…tis a boy! 😉 I’ll take the snow. Anything I can do to help.
