Rose Tonic Poem by Stuart Logan

Smell of sweetness,
Without a bite.
It's scent reminds me,
Of turkish delight.

soothes my mind,
And calms my heart.
You cannot pick this up,
In any old mart.

Made from roses,
Red and white.
Smells so sweet,
To hold back spite.

Stays in my mind,
The rose's daughter.
The smell divine,
The scent of Rosewater.

'Only the men who are adept with emotion can recall the scent of something as sweet as a rose.'
