Royal Rose
Royal red sparkling in cashmere leaves
lustrous smile of a beautiful princess
dainty petals fondling an innocent heart
in virgin crimson blends a merlot caress.
Lures of wine in folds of butterfly wings
gentle love breathes, soaked in fragrance
blossoming wild vibes of seductive blush
patience twinkles in passion of radiance.
A serenade whirlpool of mystical romance
a sunset by sea, alive in poems and prose
yet weeping in your funeral, adorned you lay,
scattered on your tomb, ...O Royal Rose.
