Rose Chalice

My chalice 
to you love 
Upon its stem 
a crowning wonder 
You hold the cup 
of beauty 
Before your eyes 
My very soul 

Your petals 
that gesture 
Calling love 
in your heart 
In the essence 
of your smell 
Breathtakingly 
heavenly 
I give to you 
the chalice 

The rose
 in all its splendor 
Straight from 
my very heart 
Blushing red 
like my heart 
to you

Inhale 
its intoxicating beauty 
Like wine 
I flow deep 
from the inside
out of me 
My rose 
from the heart
