Glass diamonds on your neck
A scarlet rosebud on your chest
and I do wonder
why all the world seems to
stare at you
Emerald jewels on your ears
Innocent lies on your lips
and I do wonder
why all my heart seems to
devour you.
This poem is directly inspired by the Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge found here at the Go Dog Go Cafe. The prompt was “Scarlet Rosebud”. I am working through older prompts to help spark my imagination. Be sure to check out the challenge every Tuesday! Photo by Eva Waardenburg on Unsplash.
