Can I conquer you?
What design to win your love
Have you a weakness?
How aloof you are
Such weapon to tend beauty
and crush my spirit
A prickly question
What irk, that thorn in my side
Just where is your smile?
I’ll give you roses
Surely I will scent success
When they touch your heart
...hopefully just the petals!
ReplyDeleteSome hearts cannot be won....always worth a try though :)
ReplyDeleteYou do such a great job of finding just the right photo to put with your poems...such fetching eyes on this one!
ReplyDeleteI do hope that the roses will be able to break through the aloofness!
