A Rose
Is a beautiful layer
with a scent beyond compare
enticing all of your senses
It fills the evening air
The
petals so soft and smooth,
of velvet feel and silk
In colours that range from deepest Red,
to the creamy White of milk
The blushing Pink of climbers

the intense shade of Peach
that ramble high over arches,
clamboring out of reach
Standards sorbet lemon
opens up it's tiny buds,
It's delicate sweetness perfume's
from the petals when gently rubbed
                            When it's scent has captured you
                   handle the Rose with care
                               For beneath the cover of innocence
                The stem is a prickly lair!
