My gorgeous followers.
I was absolutely overwhelmed with joy when I learned that Hikari had crafted a stunning piece of art just for me. Her incredible generosity and unmatched talent brought tears to my eyes. The way she wielded those masterful colors struck a chord deep within me, igniting an emotional blaze that I couldn’t contain. I wept, and in the throes of that powerful inspiration, I penned a heartfelt poem dedicated to Hikari.
Painting by Hikari

Poem by Gabriela Marie Milton
Concentrated smell of roses
Blooms in the night of white spirits
Heavy perfume on midnight’s skin
Thorns soft like tongues in prayers
Why do you think my love
You know the secret language of roses –
The secrets they carry in soft petals’ glow.
The legend speaks of tears and blood
Of the day when the Goddess ripped her clothes
In the bourns-
Who told you, darling that roses are love
They are nightingales caught in blue fingered thorns
