I see a budding bloom
wafting in the breeze
Its petals beckon to the bees
like the newly wedded groom
I see a budding bloom
Gazing towards the trees
a blossom hopes to please
Like the new bride’s swoon
I see a budding bloom
Night comes in like a tease
And the flower feels unease
But under the light of the rising moon
I see a budding bloom

I was inspire by this image and dverse poets ballata poetry form challenge. I’m not sure if I like my finished product, but it was a fun challenge! Thanks!
