January's Rose

A Collection

By Mother CombsPublished about a year ago โ€ข 1 min read

In winter's icy grip, a blossom so fair,

January's child, beyond compare.

With skin so soft, like a velvet touch,

A token of love, a gentle blush.

๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน

Against the snow, standing so bold,

A ray of pure joy, a story to be told.

A sweet fragrance, a whisper in the air,

A beauty paired with green, given care.

๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน

Winterโ€™s flower, a mysterious clue,

Blooming amidst the frost, awaiting the cue.

Scars caused by thorns, catching the light,

A tribute to strength, shining bright.

๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน

Each Delphic petal, a secret to keep,

With patience, a tale to reap.

January's rose, a symbol of grace,

Natureโ€™s monument, a loving embrace.

An innocent blush upon snowy cheeks

A sweet whisper upon the lips

Forever lost in mossy green eyes

Gently clasped in a loving embrace

Beauty upon a freshly fallen snow

In bliss kissing a rosebud mouth

Januaryโ€™s rose

The beauty of innocence

Flawless perfection

Soft velvet kisses

Given upon a clear brow

Purityโ€™s offering

๐ŸŒน

Forever afloat

In a mossy green abyss

Mesmerizing eyes
