Floral Elegance

Soft breezes tenderly caress

pastel-hued fragrance;

Adorned in fragile velvet,

royalty lifts her lovely face;

Yearning for radiant kisses,

her countenance turns skyward;

She reaches to embrace warmth,

waiting for showers of love;

Sweet elegance abides in joy

for a few brief tomorrows.
