Nurture your Nature

December's petals [65]

"Blogging Circle of Friends " 

"I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies I guess I should've been more conscious how you spoke to me"~ Lauren Spencer-Smith's Song Flowers

Let these lyrics inspire your entry today.


December's petals

With the colors of the rainbow let my heart speak,
with each hue of eternity's bloom repeat your name.

Roses come in all colors except blue. But lavender will do. The fragrance of Angel Face will make a doubter fall in love. And Oklahoma's petals give a name to its deep red hue.

A pink blush in front of a row house in early December once reminded me of you and banished the blues of autumn faced with the onslaught of winter.

But January came with a rush of snow and even the white rose wept before its frozen blows,
and became a ghost of friendship lost.

"I guess that flowers aren't just used for big apologies I guess I should've been more
conscious how you spoke to me"

I know that roses hide behind their thorns till summer. I know the melody that patience offers; but without your harmony I cannot sing.

Let me offer the yellow blooms of Goldielocks that fade beneath the searing sun,
or Tropicana that cheers us up with orange on cloudy days. No gloomy weather lasts forever.

Call me.
Call me by your name.

With the colors of the rainbow let my heart speak,
let each hue of eternity's bloom repeat the same.
