Stunning

Stunning are your smiles, fair rose, Stunning are your petals; Lovely are the sculpted tips That show the world your mettle. Frosted shades on canvas bold Are your stunning blossoms; With your friends, your bold display Would pay a Kingly ransom.

Stunning are your smiles, fair rose,

Stunning are your petals;

Lovely are the sculpted tips

That show the world your mettle.

Frosted shades on canvas bold

Are your stunning blossoms;

With your friends, your bold display

Would pay a Kingly ransom.

    What a peaceful image. It’s been such a long time since I’ve stopped to bask in nature’s beauty. 🙂

      It is so good for the soul to admire the beauty around us. I spend a lot of my time in the beauty of my garden! There is something very peaceful about the colors and textures…

        Oh, you make me want to spend more time tending my garden now.

    Stunning indeed! I wonder if the rose is the most written about flower?

      It would have to be – that would make an interesting search. I know that every evening I take more photos of the roses, and every evening am in raptures over each of them. They are simply so lovely…

        …and the scent is divine – I love the antique style roses 🙂

      2. melodylowes

        That scent adds so much to the overall enjoyment. Roses are so sensory, aren’t they?

        Symbolic and sensory 🙂
