Lily, I’m

"Spring is in bloom"

A blush–my
simple treasure
given over
to whomever

catches–my
artless eye
in springtime
swimming blithe

cross the streets
with lovers full
this fluent heat
wakes buds anew

I’m pink now
with desire
for you I’ll gift
this tingled fire

if you catch me
I’ll unfurl
for softest kiss
this secret pearl
