by-Matthew F. Blowers III


Do not take more
than a gander,
at the intrusiveness
of her lugubrious face.

As you whirl with
a partner across
the wider vista of
the dance floor,
embracing both
passion and music
in your arms.

For she is a wallflower
quite self conscious
and longing for such
a joining with you.

She has yet to bloom
in the spring filled beauty
of human nature,
that shares in
the growth of love.

She withers,
her tulips petulant,
in the lonely shadows
that line the brick wall
where she has 
planted herself.

But if a sudden urge
to cultivate seeds of hope,
in the barren fields
of her dreams
strikes you,
coax her gently
from her desert of despair.

Transplant her
in the warmth of your arms,
sharing a sunny smile,
and watch her blossom
into that breathless loveliness
she has not yet revealed

Do not take more
