evening wind rising at dusk
in a garden waiting for moonlight
petunias, roses like white brides
light the garden walk
far off thunder from the Ochocos
calling to the sultry night

Lovely. I especially like "roses like white brides".
ReplyDeleteLorna, this is lovely and would be suitable for Real Toads nocturne prompt........love the mental image of "moonlight petunias".
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry, What is the nocturne prompt?
DeleteBeautiful! Very creative.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful...I love the description of the roses as white brides
ReplyDeleteoooh, I love roses like white brides!
ReplyDeleteI have black roses in mine~
This is gorgeous
:D
They light the night! Spotlights, beauty aglow better than brides, better than an aisle!
ReplyDeleteEven though we don't look forward to thunderstorms because they frighten our dog, I love the sound of "far off thunder...calling to the sultry night"! Gorgeous, Lorna.

Potent imagery here!! Lovely work!
ReplyDeleteI like the contrasting image of the white roses against the night, and the sound of thunder rolling in.
