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.
