Andrea Dietrich Poet Quatrain

I'M Rosalicious

A goddess of enchantment and of grace,
I blossomed first, the way a flower grows,
by sprouting from the earth. My lovely face
is petal soft, resembling a fresh rose.

However, this portrayal is a ruse.
I shift to any form I want to be.
But as a rose, I love my pretty hues -
among them - lavender and ivory!

My skills are myriad, and yet one goal
I focus on each time I cast a spell:
to inspire kindness in the human soul.
I simply breathe; my sweetness they inhale!

I’m Rosalicious.  One day you might find
me in a flower’s scent, or you may see
a girl around whom everyone turns kind.
The world today is much in need of me!

Mark Peterson December 14, 2013 at 10:25 PM Lovely tale. A small thing I particularly appreciated--because practically everyone gets it wrong--is the realization that myriad is an adjective, not a noun. I cringe at 'a myriad of them are...' You, however, sang right on key allowing me to exhale.

Jack Horne December 14, 2013 at 3:44 PM love this one - and the last line is so true. A sure winner, my friend
