Gardenia~Free Verse

A single Gardenia bloomed today

On a lonely morning by the bay

~

I had watched it for days to see

If it granted more blooms to me

~

The fragrance of that one bloom

Sufficient to fill the living room

~

Filling the house with scents divine

A perfect space to relax and unwind

~

Perhaps tomorrow another will appear

Infusing its essences both far and near

Kerry leads us back to the Mini-challenge today asking us to write 10 poetic sentences. She offers us the freedom to choose our form and to play even with the length. Just so it’s mini! Thanks, Kerry!

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.

  9. Sometimes even the bloom of ONE flower can lift one’s spirits, I think. It gives a person hope. And that is what we often need to know. Spring will come. Life be good. Flowers will continue to bloom!
