"The Rose" The beauty of the lovely rose over shadows any pain. It strikes a wonderous beauty pose till the vision does remain. The love that holds love binding is the color bright and strong. The journey to their finding is the stem, dark and long. The thorns protect the blooming love so that it grows much higher, to rise and soar on heights above, not hindered by life's briar. As the color fades to gray the petal slowly dies. The vision never goes away, memories in their eyes. The rose will never lose its art, when lovers really care. The color stays within their heart, stemmed by the love they share. |

I love the describtion that you give here. I thought this poem had a nice flow behind the meaning. There are many many poems about roses or metaphors. This poem stood out above many I have read over the years. Have you read my sun in rose must fade? I think you might enjoy it. Thank you for sharing this poem. Nicely done ~Bill Poetry is just the evidence of life. |
