The Red Rose

Cherita Form

 

The red rose stands~ alone.

Never sharing her space,
with another flower's face

She's a beauty all her own
of delicate grace,yet so strong
with velvet petals wrapped in tiny thorns. 

Author's Note

The Cherita is a form that tells a story.
It is composed of three verses: a one-line verse, followed by
a two-line verse and ending in a three-line verse.

I have always had a special place in my heart and soul for roses. Not store bought ones as much as one from the garden. Your poem is very touching. Your words describe roses beautifully and do them justice by setting them apart. This rose of yours is going into my library of favorites!

A beautiful poem for the red rose. I have a piece of my Grandfather rose bush from England. The red roses make me remember my dear Grandfather working and enjoying his yard. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.
