for a change

that smell of irises,
rosy red ribbons
with pastel blue,
that swirl of elation
fluttering up in the cavity
where the heart lies.
am I hallucinating?
is this an illusion?
will this disappear
when I reach out
to touch it, to smell it,
to feel it, to love it?
please don’t go,
we are transient guests
in this flowery field,
but even so,
stay a bit longer, linger
a while, there’s still time yet
before this ends.
so far it’s been great.
let’s keep it that way.
