Geraniums Would Blush Poem by Jonathan ROBIN

Geraniums Would Blush

Rating: 5.0


GERANIUMS WOULD BLUSH
Geraniums would blush before lush lips,
And Helen Paris plaster prove to be.
In years to come when rainbow's mystery
Lies secret solved all souls will know their trips
Have in one smile their origin. Eclipse
Afrights the sun when warming light none see.
Resplendent, ever human quality
Confirmed is from fine pearly finger-tips -
Unless Truth lies - from crown, from toes to hips.
Such sparkle springs divine, as all agree.
Glad honey-bees for nectar forage free,
Alas for them - not one such sweetness sips!
In platitudes cheap scribblers refuge seek -
Life's scarlet apogee unique shall speak.

GERANIUMS WOULD BLUSH
Geraniums would blush to see her lips,
And Helen Paris plaster prove to be.
In years to come when rainbow's mystery
Lies secret solved all souls will know their trips
Have in one smile their origin. Eclipse
Afrights the sun when warming light none see.
Resplendent, ever human quality
Confirmed is from those pearly finger-tips -
Unless Truth lies - to crown from toes to hips.
Such sparkle springs divine, as all agree.
Glad honey-bees for nectar forage free,
Alas for them - not one such sweetness sips!
In platitudes most writers refuge seek -
Life's poesy through one alone shall speak.
