Purity

This poem uses rich imagery and symbolism to portray the white rose as a figure of devine innocence.

Her skin white as clouds

breath of angels in her bloom

sin forgets her name.

Wow! This is definitely the better haiku of the two. Mysterious, and the words carry as though they're lifting one up. Metaphors and similes are always effective. Great work.
