The Blue Moon Rose


Thriving in the sun she sways inside her garden
each time a fragrant wind arrives from the sea
Her lavender blooms fill the earth with pardon 
she bends at will like a tiny bud young and free

She is a rare and beautiful blue moon in my hand  
pulled from the ground she sets my heart aglow 
when I inhale her, ... then I begin to understand 
why she is my favorite rose, why I love her so 

Giving always giving, she is the perfect flower 
loosely scented in my home she is fragrance 
convening with my senses with elongated hour  
this little rose of mine, means love & romance
