With Eyes to Seek - Tri-dodeca, acrostic, personification


Wet petals, gentle

Iris white and pure,

Thine pearls of love

Hanker after her


Ellipsical, whittling waiting

Yet mine own heart stands true,

Ever lasting burning passion

Stilled by the back of you.


Try as I may,

Old wounds resurface.


Soulless staring petal flower

Eerie in this twilight day,

Entrapped in evening rain,

Kiss me quick, else I'll be dour.
