Red Rose

What a splendid scarlet rose!
Smiling petals surrounded pretty heart
What a charming blood flower!
Move closer,
The fragrance fulfills my chest.

Unlikely this blood scented!
Beloved form and perfume;
My hand tries to reach you,
My head plans to pick you;
Wild barbs bleed my heart,
O dear!
