Perfect In Every Way

She's like the essence of a coral rose 
a latent bloomer with a heart of gold 
And when she speaks to me in prose 
deep inside, she opens doors of old
 
Rosy cheeked and full of vitality 
a thriving blush in my garden of love 
Infused with life and immortality
she's been sent from up above 

A rose by any name will always be so neat   
like cupid wings when flown across the sky 
Filled with ample beauty she's replete 
soft and mellow, like a gentle sigh  

She's the perfume of my scented days,  
perfect and valuable in every way.
