Rose Meadow

Rose Meadow, articulated in thousands of ways Actualised as a garden with roses and paving, two metres square Just outside the small front kitchen window To be adored by those passing by, or those burdened with mundane tasks within Roses capture you in their spell Tease away the tethers of drudgery Encourage dalliance with thoughts of immersive romance, drenched in fragrance, petals on paving or backdrop for a ladybird Freedom awaits in your Rose Meadow Rose Meadow Poetry Contest 17th April 2023 Sponsored by: Julia Ward

Thanks Wen, sometimes a view out of a window or when passing lifts your spirits. I like to think other people's gardens are planted with the intent to pass on an uplifting feeling, a generous gift and they don't know how many people they touch with their kindness:)

I have a few rose bushes around my house. To me, it's Hyde Park:) Lovely poem, DD.
