She to rose; eye to petal; <br />Scent of rose to hers; squaring up, <br />The rose and woman's enigmatic beauty. <br /> <br />Mystery of colour; <br />Sophisticated nose of rose <br />Convinces - is that a wavering mind? <br /> <br />Rose, wink to me and let me know! <br />Rose, ambassador - stealthy messenger. <br />Rose! you waft a cheeky charm <br />Beneath your regal poise. <br />Regaling her, you are the dance! <br /> <br />Rose, your velvet feel in silken hand <br />Has her succumbed - again! <br />You watch her dial his number, <br />And grinning in accomplishment, <br />Your petals open further. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Copyright Mark R Slaughter 2009<br /><br />Mark R Slaughter<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-rose-99/
