Flower Dreams
Flower dreams do haunt mine eyes
In photographic glory!
Paint for you this strange bouquet -
These fragments of my story.
Daisies in a starry vision.
Poppy scarlet pain.
Primrose light of yellow-shine
In watercolour rain.
Lily in the musky church -
A phantom angel-dove!
Candle-flowers in the dark -
A fragrant hymn of love.
Flowers from the nightmare zone -
Velvet purple fiction!
Tendrils curling round my mind -
Delusion's strange affliction.
Death and beauty intertwining -
Rose and skull tattoo.
Jasmine-scented music
Is my requiem for you.
Flower-dreams do haunt mine eyes
In crazy swirling glory!
Offer up my strange bouquet
My painted flower-story!
