Poetry: Roses

by Jon Coe

  • Writing Level Star

Opening hearts, with flowers
watching petals untwine
Uncurling buds of hours
scent and sight, divine

Red, blood red roses, for love
vibrantly, pumping through veins
Heart's capacity, my turtle dove
emotions, holding their reins

Each and every rose, hold meaning
in the vase, or on the vine
It's the giver that is redeeming
as the recipient's heart, enshrine

    And keep my eyes

    The Homegrown Rose

    I saw it on my window sill,
    It made my heart almost
    Stand still.
    It's beautiful, it radiates,
    It glows...

    SPRING BOUQUET

    My sweetheart brought me roses,
    Each with tapered stem,
    As gold as amber sunsets,
    Twelve lovely fragrant gems.
