Notes About The Poem

Third Place 

Rose and Carnation Contest 

Roses and Carnations


   Carnation and Rose in charm and beauty
   ranking Princess or Queen as celebrity
    in marvels of color claim serenity   
                              suited for all occasions.

  Glistening in red yellow or white,
  any shade in sheen, light or bright
  even rare black prince in delight.
                                 allure all in celebrations.
                               
    Silky crimson or pearly pink
   Scarlet red to glow and blink.
   Best blaze in glaze so far, I think
                             Roses and carnations.
