“My Flowery Soul” by Lis Lovén

Submitted to Contest #86

My Flowery Soul… You know, it might sound funny or weird or what else? It is really something ´other`. Very often I have been called a Tulip or a Rose or a Lilac. It was very odd, but no.

Author bio

I am a Swedish woman. I live somewhere in the southern part of Sweden. I began writing poetry when I was fifteen. Kept on doing it. I find it more difficult to read stories, it´s like I try - but I am more of a person who like it when I sense theatmoshpere. I like Romantic and lyrical stuff. And oh.
