Imitations of Petals

Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Petals – July 29, 2021 – Eugi’s Causerie (amanpan.com)


Petals of these words
Capture not your true essence,
A perfume to me.

The rarest flowers
With their soft, fragrant petals
Are waxen mimics

Of

You stretched, glowing sleep
A contented, wonderous sight
Perfect perfection.

I am a retired teacher, enjoying everything that retirement means. In addition, I have been active in the LGBTQ community since I was four years old and marched my Ken doll with all his little Ken accouterments to the big metal trash can in the yard. Yes, I dumped Ken, along with said accouterments, into the can and slammed the lid on. My two Barbie dolls lived happily ever after.
