Magic Petals
September 11, 2010
Petals fall on the ground at my feet. I love the way they feel on my bare toes. So bright in color, yet so soft with touch. I pick it up so gently and make a wish. The texture of them on my finger is ridged. My wish will only come true if I truly believe in magical petals.

An incredible poem, to say in the least! I love how what it describes seems to really be in the moment; does that make sense?
I believe in magic petals, my dear.
