Notes About The Poem

The Lady In Red

Looking their best this spring flower,

A vision of sublime beauty and fragrance,

Evokes all of our senses by the hour.

The Lady in Red climbing rose,

Newly sprung in blazing red climbs,

Weaving itself on a wooden trellis.

Its unique velvet rosebuds of perfection,

Unfold full of scallop trim,

A hymn of green leaflets,

Breathless and infectious,

In the gentle balmy breeze.

Blooms bathe in dew shower,

Shows off it's long green waxy stems

Full of prickly thorns,

It poses vibrant and towers

Among the garden bed

Beneath the bower

And other jealous flowers.
