Ode To a Perfect Rose
ODE TO A PERFECT ROSE
TO MY ROSE
Oh rose, with velveteen ears,
so soft and tender in years.
So sensuous to rub between fingers.
Oh how your romantic fragrance lingers!
MY ROSE REPLIES
Your admiration as you twirl my stem,
and form my beatific name into a meme,
as a memory, a pressed prayer, so holy.
You treasure me and sing my praise, slowly.
MY FINAL WORDS
Indeed, oh magnificent flower, I can share :
how you tango between my teeth & decorate my hair.
You exude so much happiness, so perfectly red.
I close my eyes and dream of you, as your petals touch my bed.
