An Inspired Rose

 
Shall we guilty claim
A rose, as her beauties rain?
When suppressing her prickles
Floods of her blood
Bedew her roots
Absorbed in grace.

Shall we banish beaming scents
Of a rose rising in light?
When flourishing wonders
And streams of delight
Flowing into human veins
Avidly captured beyond words.

Shall we a beholder blame
For admiring in shining light a rose?
When many a reason
Grant noble human hands
To hold an evergreen rose
Rejoicing at divine creation.

Shall we a rose deny
A deep inner desire
To serve and give?
Bearer of Aphrodite and Venus Love
Showy but unrevealing
Transcends words what she conveys.

Shall I Euterpe invoke
My rose to inspire?
With sacred music
Words above the clouds
Penetrating fervent hearts
That never leave the heavens of poetry.
