IF ROSES COULD TALK


If Roses Could Talk

I held the stalk
Before her angelic face
And I lowered my voice.
As I raised up the Persian Rose
I raised the rose flower to her nose.
And I whispered to her below my breath
I hardly opened my mouth.
Oh, my dearest love
You are God sent to me from above
Words cannot be enough to tell you
How much I truly love you.
If only roses could talk.

  1. It's amazing how surfing the internet via Blog Explosion let's you meet people who you would have never met.
    Your poetry and presentation of such is great. I love the thought "if roses could talk"....but I hope mine never learn to....they would complain that I am not spending enough time with them.

  2. Web Loafer,
    Long time no see and I visited your blog recently.

    If Roses Could Talk is included in my latest collection of poems, "Scarlet Tears of London" and is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, MSN Shopping, Buy.com and other booksellers online.

    God bless.
