I Am a Red Rose

I am a red Rose





An ever fresh red Rose,
swaying to the tune of your love,
I am a true passion !

You mask my fragrance,
as I gladly accept,
I am a subtle sentiment !

Your very presence soothes,
and my fears placate,
I am a soft whorl of petals!

Thoughts of parting,
make me simmer and wither,
I am at peace, tranquil !

Love and passion invigorate,
Budding as a new flower,
I am a fresh red Rose !

Thanks for taking my suggestion Upma, I like the effect. It was already an excellent piece and this added a bit of sugar to your spice.

May I suggest you talk directly to him rather than about him. This would add to the romantic nature of the piece and make it feel more personal. ie: first stanza "swaying to the tune of your love".
