Roses Poem by Joseph Ogbonna

Roses have colours with global appeal,
some are Pink, Blue, Red, White and they reveal
glamour and beauty for all to cherish.
Roses have in them the power of love,
so do they, the ability to heal
a heart broken and tormented by grief.
In our relationships they distinguish
themselves as love gifts to bring great relief
to our loving hearts by erasing doubt.
Roses are ever showy and fragrant,
emitting royalty's wonderful scent,
worn by proud Princes who are nobly sent.
They blossom in the rains and in the drought.
Though they are peculiar gifts to us from above,
still with sharp thorns they could be defiant.
