The Rebellious Princess

A poem

Asdrubal luna@infectedluna

Lost
somewhere
between the lilacs
and the rose
just beyond the daffodils
and the morning glory
Look closely around the roots of the honeybloom tree guarded
by a ring of violets
And you will see
a faint outline
of Venus

If you lived
as many sunrises
as you could possibly have and if the sun itself
had risen
at just the correct angle
in the sky
you would have seen
your once in a lifetime view
of Mother Nature's
The wild one The precious one
The rebellious princess
The one who roams
between
the lines
of forgiveness
and that
of temptation

And if you are fortunate enough
when coupled
with the energy
the courage and knowing
it will take all of you
just to hold her still for the microsecond
you have
to kiss
her effervescence
parting
her lips
as you are slowly consumed
The price paid for a journey just made
with no returning
to share
a word

And slowly
she comes back
to your imagination
just as quickly
as she appeared
