the meadow of my head
      is filled with an ocean
      of wildflowers spreading
    like wildfire through my senses
    
      courted by butterflies, dragonflies, bees
      a riotous  burst of sweet-scented yellows
      lavenders, and blues dancing in the breeze
    i swear i smell them
    
      i swear i feel them growing
      into all my cavities
      where once rested my heart
    now lives greenery
tiny blossoms branching fractally
      where there were lungs 
      now a zillion red ladybug wings 
    are opening and closing
my organs have sprouted roots
      in this fertile soil, how vital i feel
      how nourished and elemental
      i am crazy with life, overun, overgrown
pervaded by beauty, oh so tenderly
      how vibrantly illuminated
      is the garden of me
      drenched in the blazing sun of your
      Love
