My Rose

Like blowing a kiss 
from my open palm to you 
Catching it in mid air 
Holding it in my mind's eye 

The colour of passion 
satin petals falling outward 
Opening it's velvety silken heart 
Blushing petals in beauty picture perfect 

Falling down your stem 
above the thorns 
Sitting regally crowned 
On the air's heavenly scent 

In my eyes 
You are my candy 
In the morning dew upon you 
like crystal teardrops 
falling to the ground 

When the sun smiles at you 
kissing you with a beautiful rays 
Sparkling your divine beauty 
Scarlet red blushing 

You sit in your high heaven's 
with silken petals 
they say it all 
Kissed by your heavenly aroma 
Crowned the queen 
my red rose

I can see why this poem won first place in a competition! The vivid imagery makes the reader actually smell the "heavenly aroma" of the roses. Amazing poetry!....Thank you so much for your nice comments on my poem, "The Shy Rose". Yes, not all of my poems are dark, sad and dreary! :)
