Edward Schmitz Poet Rhyme

A Captivating Rose

A Captivating Rose


 A rose's petals are tender to touch
The delicate nature is pridefully pure
That blazing beauty entices the eyes
While their thorns may leave you sore

They hold a scent of carnal passion
A deep perfume that dreams of love
They dare reveal their hearts, like fashion
That crimson glow is too beloved

A rose will drive you mad with envy
And transform your mind with greed and sin
They will grasp your heart and soul
As those thorns slowly sink in

Darlene De Beaulieu November 20, 2017 at 6:01 PM I like this poem about God. Edward Schmitz November 25, 2017 at 11:06 AM I believe you left this comment in error. While I do have poems about God, this poem is not. Seeing as this was the second comment you left on this poem I believe you have mistakenly left it under the wrong poem.

Darlene De Beaulieu November 20, 2017 at 5:49 PM Yes the rose has thorns, to me they are beautiful flowers, no matter what colour they are.Yes they have thorns,you have to be careful how you hold them in oreder not to get hurt by the thorns. Edward Schmitz November 25, 2017 at 11:19 AM thank you for your comment. While this poem was about flowers, it’s also... not about flowers. Either way, I will definitely be careful when holding them.
