"With a few flowers in my garden, half a dozen pictures and some books, I live without envy." Lope de Vega I view my home as an all encompassing feeling that is full of silken petals, everything so soft to the touch. My books being the most treasured objects as they can transport me to anywhere in the world. And somewhere in a book I discovered a poem and it was then that I found poetry to be so beautiful. You are invited to leaf through my books and discover beautiful poetry. |
With joy and gladness for her dower, And always on the wing, She extracts sweets from every flower-- For her, life has no sting. My Pet! of all, I love thee best-- Thou child of noblest mind,-- Who lov'st me more than all the rest, So generous, good and kind! Sweet bad! Thou'rt very fair to me, Unfolding day by day; From sorrow be thou ever free, On earth -- long be thy stay! And still another openeth rare, Its petals now unclose, More lovely far beyond compare Than any splendid rose. by Mary E. Tucker |

Delicately petaled roses pale pinks to white softly scented perfume early morn till late of night. Permeating, sensualizing, encouraging one to breathe the aromatic therapeutic spell that roses weave. |

Flowers of life's bounty Sweet petals soft with dew Within our life cascading Each velvet gift for you Feel and know the beauty That enters like a prayer A very special whisper With scents of love so rare Bringing us the comfort To heal our hurts inside Softly in this gentleness Our hearts and souls collide Our words in life repeating With thoughts of love and rhyme Each word a touch of velvet Those feelings so sublime All these silken petals Will make your spirit flow Treasury of comfort Life's most enchanting glow. ~ Francine Pucillo ~ Copyright October 30, 2003 |
