Rose Heart

 

Her blossoms await

beneath the plain of ice

pulsing in a splash

of passion's crimson.

 

A beating heart

in the snowy caves

where time passes eternal

in stillness she waits.

 

For a lover's kiss

she patiently endures

until she may bloom again

in beauty new awakened.

Nice poem, Silver Wind. :-) I really like the sensual imagery of the blossoms "pulsing... passion's crimson" in the first stanza, as it added to the tone of longing in the poem and contrasted with the icy setting in a very interesting manner. The one word of the poem that confused me a bit was "breath" in the second line of the first stanza, as the grammar there seems off and I couldn't envision the blossoms generating the ice when they seem to long to break free from it... was the word "beneath" intended there by any chance?

 

Nice stuff, once again. :-) Thanks for sharing it here, Silver Wind.
