The Flowers of Orpheus

The Flowers of Orpheus

Viridian flowers,
Orpheus grew them,Β 
Saplings flowered reverently,
Watered with words,
That spilled delicately,Β 
From the pregnancy of a poem,

The seeds were sown from wrinkled hands,
Aged with the grip of a quill,
Each placed in the sweet, fertile Earth,
To grow into natural beauty.

Β Warmed with the rays of joy in his eyes,
From the scripture he hastily jotted down,Β 
His smile grieving of abandoned worksΒ 
That would become the weeds.

Β  Blooming buds opened sweetly,
In the late spring air,
Petals revealing the lost flowers,
That the world has searched so dearly,Β 
The poems that I have never written,
The joys of author's that have yet to come.Β

Hey DEVYN!!....VERY creative write!! ......haven't read you before (my loss)...... you've obviously written before...... great use of subtle alliteration here to help maintain liquidity in your flow.... and yet...... the spontaneous feel of this suggests you have a gift for simply writing almost freestyle...... but the narrative itself...... with Orpheus being central to your suggestive....." The seeds were sown from wrinkled hands.."....... leads me to think that this was Well conceived & Beautifully delivered.......ALL STARS...... well done...... and in case no one has said it.......WELCOME to COSMO brother poet!!.......LOVE and ROCKETS !!.....Txo.Β  ?

Thankyou for the kind compliment it's always wonderful to receive things of the sort! No, you probably haven't read my poetry before, but I am glad you are now! Actually I really haven't written before that much, I started last year with serious writing and poetry, I'm trying to train myself how to write in a perfected sense.Β
