Rosebuds

One rose budding 
all silken wrapped 
in soft pink 
petal feelings 
parting emotions 

Her heart blushing 
red crimson passion 
intensity grows 
beating love starts 
slave of desire 

Flying on wings 
pollinating 
rising tension 
excitement landing 
on nectar 
tasting sweet mead 

Desiring royal jelly 
queened goddess 
beautiful honey 
you bloom so sweet 
wearing the heart's core 
embraced in love

Wonderful glory to the rose and its symbolism, Liam. I too love the rose, and have written many poems in this manner. 'A Winter Rose', is a sonnet I have written that can be found here at poetry soup. Perhaps you might like it. bfn Lainie
