Premium Member The Pale Pink Rose At Dawn

As I desire outside just at daybreak
Watch the sleepy sun rise in the mist
So I'll go out, get tools, leaves rake
An excuse to watch that sun rise; my risk

Then I see that one Pale Pink Running Rose
The one deserving its picture taken
I'll get the camera; rose will pose
Leaving chore; leaf raking forsaken

Maybe I'll cachinnate, hide from work
I'll beek in sun think of shenanigan
Go to creek, try to see fish through murk
Couchant posture dip fingers, dawn began

The anacoluthia of these lines
Requires couchant posture very fine
