Dust in the winds <br />Shadows walking leaving trails <br />Eyes cocking navigate scents meddle the streets <br />Nightingale scans the sounds of thousands voices <br />Breaking the night camaraderie <br />Little birds of Hudson Bay <br />Whistling the songs of Hoboken array <br />Holland tunnel a lifeline… splendid to many <br />Manhattan Upper embraces Manhattan Lower <br />Epic proportion in sync with memories <br />Jersey carats of gold got you in me <br />The Albanian smiths…. <br />Once said “crafted out of crisp” <br />I kept your smiles at Camden Waterfront <br />Let it flow like Delaware River……entwined <br />Your touch as lush as Pinelands <br />Casting me away to Atlantic blue <br />Song from ‘The Boss’ reminds me of you <br />Jersey girl caught me red handed <br />Rosanne in my heart you stay naked <br />Our footprints on Cape May a landmark <br />You stand tall like Statue of Liberty whenever I embark <br />From Sandy Hook to Long Beach we walk…. <br />With kisses sealed along the places we flock <br />The Jazzmen of Uncle Patti’s pub fills our souls… <br />With ‘all that Jazz’ magic……unfolds <br />Rosanne baby………seagull of Monmouth <br />I pluck the Roses… <br />As red as your blushes <br />Devout me to crushes <br />Time Square ceases ticking the clock <br />When the Roses pale as White Rock <br />Trembled into neon pieces….. <br />Injured with stitches<br /><br />Sulaiman Mohd Yusof<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/roses-for-rosanne/
