celebrating life
A Poet's Prayer

|
Resplendence of a rainbow's arc
The stylish songs of meadowlark
Ambrosial scent of cherry trees
Refreshing taste as honey flows
Soft velvet touch of damask rose --
These pleasures bring me to my knees.
A calla lily's sculptured swirl
A butterfly as wings unfurl --
I make to God one last behest,
that I might share these memories
like milkweed seeds set free by breeze
before I take my final rest.

Author Notes
Rhymelord posted a poem with this aabccb rhyme scheme, and it appealed to me.
