And an African Violet

    He endeavors to become your words

         takes them

            folds them into His body

   where they'll grow if it rains

                     and when it suns:

    green twisting ivy will sashay its way up and around the veins in His arms

   dragon snaps will breathe sincere blazes behind His enamoured dark eyes

    and an African violet will catch in His throat so the fragrant breath of his speech immerses you in a place you thought you'd forgotten some eternal months ago



          He'll take root in you

                 you're gone

                     as you water that garden

        that pushed up and catches dew

      on a sunshower, daydreamers' afternoon

   where once, only words grew

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is my prediction.

It's about love.

i think i've run out of things to say for all your poems...because they're all so awesome, and i don't have any other words for them. i love when people use things like twisting or growing or becoming apart of something in their poems...do you know what i mean? i just think it's so beauitful. poetry is such an emotional thing for me.. i just want to close my eyes and let it become a part of me. that might sound weird, but i'm sure you know what i'm sayin. but anyway, this is one of those that kind of leaves your body in the chair and runs away with your thoughts... waaaaay far away. like a dream. i'm such a dreamer...lol i told my mom last night that i want to live in fairy land. hehe yes i'm a weirdo =)
