Notes About The Poem

The Rose Bud

Her beauty, her presence, leaves nothing to chance
Unaware she steals eyes, at the very first glance
takes air from the lungs, steals joy from the fun
and brims with an essence that captures the sun

A smile that's as natural as a day in the sun
With hair slick and shining from an afternoon's fun
Her skin pink and rosy
Our eyes follow closely
while legs long and slim, are like stems on the posies

In her innocence taking it all for granted
Not knowing that nature around her, enchanted

This beautiful child, who never was told
That she'll bloom like a flower that soon will unfold
Into a beauty that remains yet untold
