Sweet Token (Lira Form)

by Corinne   Jun 10, 2008


Friendship's grace a sweet token
As a colleague bestows both vase and flower
Scented prose, volumes spoken
Sits on my desk this hour
Bearing kindness and the heart's fragrant power

Lira
5 lines syllables 7, 11, 7, 7, 11

    Love the imagery of the "scented prose" and the "heart's fragrant power"....amazing what emotions blossom when a gift of flowers is bestowed! Nice tribute to friendship!
