A profusion of pink roses bending ragged in the rain –speaks to me of all gentleness and its enduring.
– William Carlos Williams
The rose holds
ribboned metaphor,
sharpened imagery,
hued simile,
as a bud or in full
bloom, summer peach,
wild crimson, or rush
of blushing pink,
a rose, just as a rose is…
is poetry.
