Roses For Pd

For you, P.D., a thank you rose A single, dark pink beauty With long stem, delicate petals And glistening dew drops The epitome of strength and courage Kindness and gentleness The spirit of a true poet For you, P.D., A fragrant blossom Brightened by the sun's light Like the poets you touch with your words I give to you this pink rose in admiration To a poet who encourages her peers in all their writing endeavors And for welcoming new poets, too I give you a thank you rose with gratitude This long stemmed pink rose for you. Dedicated to P.D. By Rhonda Johnson-Saunders, February 6, 2012 First place in Roses for PD contest
