Morning Glory
Alone stirring in my despair,
Restless fears would never cease.
Pining for hope, which seemed so rare,
You uprooted me with peace.
Softly like snow-on-the-mountain,
Airy like love-in-a-mist,
You gently nurtured me with care
Like petals by dawn's light kiss'd.
The glow of your skin, carnation-
A Venus, your looks entice-
Cute as a black-eyed susan-
My own bird of paradise.
For one so sweet and innocent
To arouse me from my death!
You show'r me with "forget-me-not's"
And whisper in baby's breath.
A rose sun blossoms in the sky,
The start of a new story.
It feels so good to be alive,
Thanks to my morning glory!

May I offer you a poem, Mademoiselle?
Very well done, great flow. So did you work at a nursery in your younger days? If I counted right, 8 varieties. Nice line: and whisper in baby's breath.
