Scarlet Dancer
October 29, 2018
A gem I can not hope to hold
I long to reach out and touch it
If only I could be so bold
So here, holding my head, I sit
An untouched rose in the garden
Its petals soft and delicate
They will never crisp nor harden
Always will they be decadent
As graceful as a butterfly
And as marvelous as one too
A true beauty my eyes did spy
With a hop, through the sky she flew
Her scarlet dress engulfed the room
Like a wild flower in full bloom
