Wrap me in ribbons,
Golden
as swaying autumn wheat
Wrap me in ribbons,
Green
as rain moistened moss
Wrap me in ribbons,
Cream
as newly hatched chicks
Wrap me in ribbons,
Saffron
as a sweltering sunset
Wrap me in ribbons,
Indigo
as a winters twilight sky
Wrap me in ribbons,
Lavender
as the fields of Provence
Wrap me in ribbons,
Umber
as the rich dark earth
Wrap me in ribbons,
Opalescent
as dewdrops on spider webs
Wrap me in ribbons of Valentines
My love
whilst I wrap you in mine.

Thank you Cath, what would life be without ribbons :)
ReplyDeletehas this only been posted such a short time; then realize have read this many times as a silent prayer in artistic prose. This work visually moves me in each verse. Outstanding work.

O Sonya, you are so sweet. I tried to describe the colours as I see them. This means alot to me coming from you :)
