I Thank Of You As A Red Rose Poem by Randy Hogan

I thank of you as red rose to only touch your beauty,

As i long to hold you in my hands to only get prick by your thorns to let blood roll down my fingers

From your thorns i bleed as the blood lingers from my fingers tips as a tears upon my cheek,

The tears from my cheek falls from my eyes to lingers upon your stamen

For the blood from my hand got its start from my heart
for i know the pain is worth it

Like the beauty in my eyes my blood adds the reds to your blossom
