The beauty of a crimson rose...

a luminous crimson red.

It was blossoming,

it was young,

it was fresh like Spring.

It’s petals were vibrant.

They were full of life

full of youth.

it was vivid

it was beauty itself

it was the glory of life itself.

It was a magnificent red rose…

Inside this splendid rose

special qualities lay hidden…

There was purity,

there was clarity.

And there was more.

There was innocence

And there was freshness,

there was the rigor of youth

there was the zest for life…

The inner soul

of this magnificent red rose

was vivid, vibrant,

glowing and radiant.

This superb crimson  rose

was named Elaine…
