Flowers Symbolize Unbridled Passion

June 30, 2019

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is weddings.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A wedding poem about the symbolic meaning of flowers:

Flowers symbolize unbridled passion,

Love, and the attraction lust requires.

Of beauty born, they burn with fragile fires,

Waiting to be some lover’s prized possession.

Even so may lovers be drawn higher,

Rapture melting soon their self-obsession,

Swept up to tenderness by love's desires.
