Rose Garden

Rose blossoms divine~ splendor exuding delight,
Ebullient is their stance, colorful is their profile,
Ecstatically they rise, flaunting exuberant smile;
Grandeur flower-bouquets charming your sight
Lauding scented whiffs fragrant blooms impart
As silken petals unfold, lip-synching your heart.

Upon arched trellis dazzles honey-gold royal rose
Forming vibrant arc of winsome welcome-pose,
Charming realm of crimson, scarlet, coral, themes~
Seductive blooms enchanting passionate dreams,
Standing tall on long-stems wallowing in sunrise
Romancing love-vibes beaming through your eyes.

Bountiful clusters tout reddish-purple fuchsia blush
Oscillating rosy-buds to lyrical melodies of thrush
Where, chasing nectar, bees and butterflies rush,
While daydreams-enamored, clasping silence hush,
Reveling indulgent stimulus in cooing hints of dove
Strumming in our hearts mellifluous music of love.

Stana 3, as Harry Horsmans noted, stands a little taller. I have yet 2 recall a sub-par write from Vijay Ji's pen, kudos. Question: u have several rose types? One pair of lines refer to a trellis, more for the creeper variety?

Vijay, my simple wild garden of zinnias and sunflowers has paled in comparison to your magnificent splendor of the beautiful flowers you have penned in your poem! I guess I need to go visit other parts of the world, I'm getting a tad jealous ;) Such a lovely poem! <3 ~BJ
