The Rose And The Sky

Red Rose sat under Azure Sky
singing melodies
of Lithium and Good Enoughs
and other harmonies
when Azure Sky greeted Red Rose
he quickly stole away
the breath and heart of this flower
in the most romantic way
Red Rose reached and grew and grew
and grew and reached so high
so that he might one day get
to kiss that beautiful Sky

    Thank you for this lovely parable. I would have preferred more descriptive imagery rather than repeating "grew" three times, but overall a wonderful poem. Thank you for your entry. Peace, Liz

    Lovely imagery... I love the difference between the Red Rose and the Azure sky - those two just play in lovely comparison in my mind... Beautiful... really... Just beautiful..

    Thank you for a brilliant read
