The Beauty of an English Rose.

A tribute poem to English Roses.

The Beauty of an English Rose.


The truth beholds in mine eye.
A rose is all that's best in beauty.
She encompasses its true forms,
its many resplendent radiant faces,
-which the sunlight gently graces.

Reflected in dazzling radiance,
that shows no earthly boundary.
Reaching to very farthest stars
beyond the blue seas of seven,
-angelical dream of lovely heaven.

She smiles rainbows bright,
spreading charms of empathy.
Serenely expressing great joy.
Endearing love, so very unequivocal,
-she walks in beauty, an eloquent miracle.

Her glorious curves alluring you,
in seductions so very sensual form.
What fabulous sexual symmetry!
A red blooded man's, rampant adore,
-provoking a mythical lions mighty roar!

This might have been written as an ode to Greer Garson
after the biography, A Rose for Mrs. Miniver.

AWESOME!!! I really think that this is a truly descriptive poem and that this is purely romantic in nature. Gonna love those English roses.

A mythical lion's mighty roar...now there's a line! She must have been something else!

[Holly Mason]

roses- beautiful and glorious they are
I have always thought that thorns were not placed to hurt us but more to protect the beautiful rose...beauty needs protection from mighty roars*)
I have been watching this title float by all morning and I couldn't resist...glad I didn't
lovely imagery
thank you for sharing

John,

Beautiful and inspiring. Ancient stone fortresses, dragons, roses. You write on topics close to my heart. Topics than inspire.

Yes, the rose, it is such a beautiful and encapsulating creation. How lovely and delicate. The beauty. The smell. The gentle caress of its petals if brushed across the lips. This is a magnificent write for a magnificent flower.

All my best. This was greatly enjoyed.

Sublime imagery delivers the head-clubing metaphor.
Pretty, most pretty!

[The Lone Wolf Prose]

Oh how my heart sings to be reading classically written literature. Simple and lovely. Reminds me of another poem that I read a long time ago. I am almost smell the delicate fragrance and feel her soft petals...Also love your word choices.

Look forward to reading more
