Craving The Color

Is it and wonder we crave the color

Many angles to finagle our desire, beauty or scent heartfelt softness of each petal

Nothing simple why their symbolic from pompous too bucolic, varies from culture to culture

Bold as gold Crimson luster exudes from a cluster, shared by saints or signs of a devil

Gardeners pay a price when handling the bramble, drops of blood reflect each blossom, beauty is worth the gamble

Favorite tint carries a hint of wisdom, white as purity, mellow yellow brings joy, BIG and BOLD or pastel is soft and gentle

Countless days dependent on the image meshed with chocolates become almost redundant, sinners or winners they are laid across the saddle

Bride and groom enter a room share in the passion, her rosy cheeks polished pink, Piano softly plays "The Rose "
making each feel special !

Was fitting for the first day of summer :)
Thoughts on the many ways we use the rose as a symbol, a display for a casket or a wedding or valentines day can be interchangeable,as a gardener could have included more ways they are symbolic.also are often used in songs of love and hate, common in art and tattoos . Thanks for reading your comments are helpful :) Peace Takes Practice. Rick
