Rose
enfolded velvet
scented spiral, love’s symbol
blossom of passion

The beauty of a rose never fails to mesmerize, especially in a close-up. What’s your experience been with roses? Have you grown any? Been given any? Write a haiku about it and put it in the comments. (Or just tell it, shared stories are good.)

Great poetry source!


Scarlet petals bloom,
Sharp thorns guard a sweet perfume,
Fading in the sun.
To smell a rose
A gentle moment
Eternal whisper of a heart
