Roses In Conversation
Afternoon delight, bordeaux
Tangles summer song;
Windrush, sea foam, penny lane and white wings
Sound on a brass band;
Restless, queen of hearts
Signs: No surrender!
Peace! shouts a mermaid at Golden Gate;
The Eiffel Tower is in France;
Ebb tide is upon us Desdemona,
Pass the cayenne pepper please, dear Quicksilver.

When I was a little child, I though the roses in my grandparents’ garden chatted to each other when I went to bed, which is why your roses In conversation appeal to me, Gillena and you managed to include so many rose names in your poem.
