A Rose Like You
by Poetic Rizz
Original poem "To Find A Rose (As Fair As Thee)" by Duane Marksley
Poetry Now Version
To find a rose as fine as you,
One would have to lose sight of the truth,
For none can compare to your bloom.
— Poetic Rizz
Original Poem
To find a rose as fair as thee,
As bright as thine rosy cheeks,
One can ne'er imagine,
For of your face God speaks.
Thine beauty is the bright sun,
Laughter blossoming petals of rose,
To find a love as fair as thee
Is a quest that no man knows.
Find a rose as fair as thee,
And I shall be defeated sound,
Alas! There exists no rose,
For thou art found!
Thine love is like summer's grace
Always passionate and heated,
The warmth of your embrace
Leaves mine breath depleted.
So fair thou art - Aphrodite
Might hide her unwanted face,
For only thee, fairest blossom rose,
Can occupy her space.
