Dipped in Southern Soul

Fresh-cut burgundy roses

lying on green grass blades,

thin linens blowing

in gentle October breezes.

Soft amber rain falling

through a stubborn sun,

bright rainbow taking sides.

I embrace this moment,

and my heritage.

I love this place, this

garden where dreams are

made.

After the chilling rain,

I lift my face and heart

to the warming southern sun.
