TWICE BLUSHING FLOWER, AND OTHER SHORT POEMS, MARCH 28, 2023

By Donovan Baldwin

twice blushing flower first blush at touch of his words... second her own thoughts

----- time to taste your love soft love spilled on you from me... becomes part of us ----- alone in darkness i play scenes over again... we have not yet lived ----- reaches out for her when the storm breaks over him... her love's safe haven ----- a specific heart not one simple type to find... laying on love's shore ----- with the rise of dawn life and i awaken to... daylight dreams of you ----- feels she's not worthy not aware that he treasures her... just the way she is ----- he whispers nothings sets them free on summer breeze... in hopes she will hear ---- a lifelong battle carried so many secrets... burdens of others ----- not bound to earth nightly we visit the moon... to be together ----- riding wild currents as we swim in love's river... caught in its rapids ----- shame on her some say she doesn't feel she does wrong... her lover agrees ----- i once rode the storms playfully defied wild winds... now but memories ----- light begins to dim old dark memories return... with sad loneliness -----
