beautiful eyes
like a golden dawn
lingers in his dreams
for so long
silver smiles
was a love call
to her yearning heart
from the start
fate’s sentinel
watches from afar
cuts the lines clean
with no regard
- Written for dVerse Poetics: Daffy for Daffodils, Sprung for Spring. I used the following daffodil variety names: beautiful eyes, golden dawn, silver smiles, love call and sentinel
Wonderful, Arcadia. Short, sweet and I love the rhymes.💛
