| The Velvet Rose by Lena Rai Source: Voices Silently Speak (2005), p. 30 A velvet rose where the vines have crossed Such beauty betrays at its own cost The petals seem to dance to the heart's eye As its color finds passion far from shy How real to seem and deep it gets To feel such life as it only lets The details creep to your most hidden treasure Thoughts of such bring withheld pleasure To a mind's eye only creativity lies awake To those understood love is at stake Receiving such an image by gift or mistake The brought up feelings are such a blunder To finally cause an emotional wonder What feeling suppress deep within Glancing across situations begin -------------------------- This poem is nominated Best Poem of Year 2005 for 2nd Muses Prize - Poetry. ------------------------------------------- Editor's Rating: 4.5 olives Reader's Rating: (not yet rated.) -------------------------------------------------------- |
