Notes About The Poem

Image result for pictures of an old fashioned red running rose in bloom

Stolen

The running rose blooms under sunny skies Each soft petal's beauty to heart ties' As both nostrils fill with pollen To enjoy its wafting scent now stolen

The rose bush in the image looks so beautiful. From it I get the scent.

Valsa, I brought inside a couple of cuttings from my running rose somewhat like that one in the picture, and my eyes kept itching and nose running or stopping up so I had to throw them away. Sara K

Beautiful Sara. Love thee pic. I have a rose bush just like that in my garden. This inspires me to try to find a poem about roses that I wrote years ago and resubmit it. God Bless, JB

Paula, I had a pale pink rose which I adored, and it eventually died from several factors one too much shade, weeds trying to invade and that fungus that gets on the leaves and causes them to drop. My husband loved the red rose is the reason I have them. Sara K

I wonder, John, if I were a bee would I be allergic to pollen and die a quick death because of my problem. LOL..Thank you for such a nice review. Sara K
