Petals of BeautyHow much beauty does one unmask and reveal?Only truth lies in the cold blossoms ofroses. Only lovely sweet scents could healsores that sit on the petals like a dove.The unmasking of a rose with colors Deep as blood can only show the lovely,beauteous truth by which is surely bestowed,Petals of beauty, ruined by uglyAnd monstrous scents that fill roses blooms.As the roses sink slowly, weakening;Ones with no beauty remain smelling asSweet as those with no beauty for seeking.Beauty is what life consists of, it seems,But as one grows none will be left to redeem.
