the queen of the rose 7
when the beauty of a damsel is a red rose
whose petals are unchaste of any pollination
her savour rises as a fragrance to the high heavens
for she has not compromised her foremost taste
then her beauty becomes crowned amongst others
because it is tender and fragile like a hymen
your reign is set above the multitude of others
for your worth exceeds an equivalence for exchange
nothing on earth is prized to your inbuilt acquisition
many dames have a way of faking qualities
but through your natural way of deeds
i am convinced you were bore a true princess
maturity becomes the pinnacle of your lordship
you are transfigured from a princess to a queen
while the metamorphosis of my fortune has not evolved
and i seem to remain a misfit evermore
