A Poem Lovely As a Rose

A poem lovely as a rose - she shows to us her pretty pose. She sits with grace atop a stem, dew-covered, glowing like a gem. I love to see her many hues which often have inspired my muse. In yellow, pink or red – each spring delightfulness my rose shall bring. Delightfulness like I will find when poems blossom in my mind. Oh, Rose, so precious, fragrant too, I wait for you to bloom anew. March 2, 2022 For Margarita Lillico's 'A Poem Lovely As' Contest

Congratulations on this gorgeous poem receiving first place Andrea. I entered “Aesthetic Autumn” which was an older poem, but it didn’t make the list. I really haven’t written much new lately. Home repairs are taking up most of my time these days. Have a wonderful week. Blessings xxoo ps I know I read this and commented but I don’t see my comment. I love it!

sorry your entry did not make the list, Connie. I should go find it to recall what you wrote. I believe I have seen every single one of all your poems.

Congratulations on your win Andrea! We have 20+ roses in the garden, in pots, spread all over our garden and patio. I will think of your poem when I see them bloom in loveliness bringing "delightfulness."

Lovely, Andrea; I enjoy your poetry--it is, at the same time, both lucid and complex. I want to read something that is beautiful and understandable, not elaborate and convoluted simply for the sake of being so. lol. You always deliver. Thanks!

Another beautiful poem, I wasn't too sure what to write, so I wrote about the ocean. I used to love going to the coast in Oregon and walk the beaches, just mesmerizing. Good luck in Margarita's contest.
