My Shimmering Rose
My gentle rose of coral hue
Soft and sweet and wondrous true
Your subtle petals enfold me, I curl and hide
In thy modest charms,
Of innocent blushful brides.
Therein by shy flushed demeanor
A world subdued, in your soulful whorls,
lies enraptured
Potent dreams of escape into thy
Fragrant capture
My fragile red rose,
in your heart lies,
my strength's departure.
Yet in your demure dream embrace
This torn worldly heart of mine
Seeks to find solace,
Healed by satiny sutures of your
Shining touch
My shimmering Red Rose
I love you very much.
