A rose grows in the night
Lit beneath the diamond lights
Petals smooth in silken magic
Blossom crimson shaded fabric
I touch the stem and thorns
Disappear from their tragic court
Scent regales the pollens nectar
That sings in childhood's laughter
Where smiles are like roses
That grow inside the night
To smile, to laugh! Brings Joy to the heart; and, to respect nature. Nice work.
It's so sweet to see that childhood's laughter. Thank you for sharing.
A magical, and mystical, quality to this poem that beckons for its continuance. Outstanding, Kevin!
Scent regales the pollens nectar that sings in childhood's laughter....captivating poetic expression....A magnificent poem!
May the silken petals of the rose shine brightly like the stars at night.........Full Marks
Innocent thoughts and smiles are like roses that bloom at night....Absolute delight!
Fantastic poem Kevin! I loved the imagery of a rose that grows in the night.

There is enough poetry in this poem. Here, night is symbolic and so, my view is that, out of such a mental situation, smiles like roses won't be the result. There should already be some spark of positive life deep within and only out of such light, anything that can be life giving forces is really possible. Dark mind will naturally pull us down.
