Kim Rodrigues Poet Pantoum

A Rose in the Garden of Love

White rose blooms, a snowy heirloom,
tender flesh with a golden tinge.
‘Pon coneflower iron, with groom
‘Neath trellis, a harlequin binge.

Tender flesh, with a golden tinge,
Those pearly blossoms help her chill.
‘Neath trellis, a harlequin binge.
Her Summer buds, dressed to thrill.

Those pearly blossoms help her chill.
‘Pon coneflower iron, with groom,
Her Summer buds, dressed to thrill.
White rose blooms, a snowy heirloom.

If I keep favoring all of your poems, the rest of my bloom-list will be dulled by your profound glitter. Kim Rodrigues April 17, 2025 at 7:36 PM Thank you kindly, dear Joe! ~ Kim

Hilda Greenhough March 4, 2025 at 6:43 AM I love this poem. White roses seem to be scarce, but are perfect for a wedding. I enjoyed how the words moved through the poem, reinvesting in the flower theme. Congratulations on your perfection writing a beautiful pantoum.

Daniel Henry Rodgers March 4, 2025 at 5:35 AM Dear Kim, What a beautifully woven carpet of elegance and romance. I kept thinking how the white rose, tender yet strong, captures both the delicate and enduring nature of love. I think your words bloom with grace, much like the garden you paint with each line a petal, unfolding with beauty. A truly enchanting piece! Spring Blessings, my Dear Friend, Daniel Kim Rodrigues April 17, 2025 at 7:40 PM You are always so sweet! Thank you, dear Daniel!
