The rose requiem

Green as the grass is said to be over yonder,

Filling the soul with yearning wonder.

Red and darkly enchanting,

The colour of blood pumping through the heart,

Intoxicating with a strong and binding art,

Forcing the body to be mercilessly thrust,

Into the open arms of waiting lust.

The rose is a gateway,

Leading to Pandora's Box,

Releasing the deluge kept sealed behind the locks.
