A Single Rose

For the Valentine's Day Contest

A single rose
Your gift to me
Not from the five and dime

A single rose
Pale pink in bloom
Dark buds around it shine

A single rose
Soon will die
Buds scented like floral wine

A single rose
Your gift to me
Sweaty sticky hands touch mine

A single rose
Plucked full in bloom
Pressed in the book of time

A single rose
Your gift to me
On peanut butter we dined

A single rose
More beautiful then all the rest
Because you made it mine

A single rose
A bud I took
Into soil I primed

A single rose
Now grows strong
It stands the test of time

A single rose
Climbing jungle love by my kitchen door
Forever my heart binds

I like this poem... There's something strong about a repetitive like a single rose.

[Morning Star]

Absolutely breathtaking piece of art
A single rose
Climbing jungle love by my kitchen door
Forever my heart binds
Beautiful expressions of love and how it bloom and still going
you seem to write not only from your heart, but from your soul
