🌾 Today’s Poem ~ A Bowl of Roses
A Bowl of Roses
William Ernest Henley
It was a bowl of roses:
There in the light they lay,
Languishing, glorying, glowing
Their life away.
And the soul of them rose like a presence,
Into me crept and grew,
And filled me with something—some one—
O, was it you ?
✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Are You an Adventurer?

The Masks of Love
Alden Nowlan
I come in from a walk
With you
And they ask me
If it is raining.
I didn’t notice
But I’ll have to give them
The right answer
Or they’ll think I’m crazy.
