Ruby Rose

Sparkling white pearls in sun-rays gold
Adorning dew drops glint-morning arose
On silken-red aura, petals velvet unfold
Flaunting glamour of expressions bold
Exuding fragrance floral splendor chose
Luring passions heart rhythms compose
Revealing hints endearing sights disclose
In language of love, poise of ruby rose.

Dear vijay, you are just a natural with your way of rhymes and flow of alliterations and such exquisite wordplay. I love how descriptive it is and so many lines stood out for me in this like “ On silken-red aura, petals velvet unfold Flaunting glamour of expressions bold“ gorgeous and captivating cadence really. “ In language of love, poise of ruby rose.“ just stunning! You are so gifted. Always a pleasure reading your work. Sending you light .
