Playing soulful words through my keys (Prose and Poetry); capturing colorful hues with my eyes (Photography); pondering lessons learned with my pen (Love/Life Quotes). These are my sunflower blooms..

You are sensitive,
A beauty so delicate,
Maiden well-cared of.
***
Your blooms are unique,
Unusual, yet so simple,
Lovely to look at...
***
Offering the White,
Lilac seems an endless love
Forgot what we were.
***
Have you seen this one?
Do you remember this flow'r?
You said I'm the one.
***
Decipher the words,
Scribbling because of sadness
Orchids we were once.

The Woman In The Mirror
The woman in the mirror
I always see a smiling face
No matter what life dishes out
She still has poise and grace.
No matter what life dishes out
She still has poise and grace.
So many troubles
Life has been all wrong
The woman in the mirror
Still sings a happy song.
The woman in the mirror
No one sees her grief
She learned to hide it well
Though she knows no relief.
Sometimes sadness overrules
And she wants to let go
And the journeys of life
Are often too much to know.
She finds the strength somehow
To carry the heavy load
Two steps further forward
Along the endless rocky road.
The woman in the mirror
Her beliefs have made her strong
Knowing there is happiness
That will someday, to her belong...

*A shared photo and a message that captured my senses. Reading this poem.. it pulls on the inner emotions of the poet for a woman. I have this feeling that the poet's subject is the woman herself. I may be wrong ..or he/she had been a witness to another woman's experience..somehow, the poem also reflects me...
The Sunflower in Me
As the bright sun shines
What a smile sunflowers bring
Brightens someone's day!
Radiates joy, beauty
A positive energy
Good vibes from within!
Unwavering faith
And unconditional love
for someone adored...
Absorbs emotions
Sensitiveness for its kind
Let the pollen spread!
If you meet someone
With wits and intelligence
Catch and don't let go!
If you haven't found
Hunt one for she brings beauty
Across the ages!

Your light glows into the night sky
Amazing splendor through the night
Joy, excitement in one's eyes.
How magical! How wonderful!
Enchanting, captivating lights!
Created by One so Powerful!
One of the most marvelous creations,
Not all people are blessed to witness...
Aurora, why aren't you here?
How can we see the splendor,
Of your natural beauty presents.
Follow the dream, follow the sky,
Follow the land where Aurora is...

My Star

I gaze through the lens,
I thought you were a star.
Your love touches my eyes, reaching me,
touching life, outlining your presence in me.
Your warmth never burns,
your hug glows inside me.
Your brightness is subtle, impressive,
a love that knows no distance.
You speak through my heart
without even opening your lips.
We consummated our longing
Every time the world darkens.
You are humble enough
to reach me beyond the expanse,
telling me there is something
rather than nothing.
I then realized that you saw me before
Or is it I who saw you?
Every night, our future meets from a distant past.
I wonder if you are still there.
