Of Roses
And the rose like a nymph to the bath addrest,
Which unveiled the depth of her glowing breast,
Till, fold after fold, to the fainting air,
The soul of her beauty and love lay bare.

Thank you for liking “Flowers at the Farmers Market, 2010.” Gorgeous rose photos! ๐ Shelley was quite dramatic. I still remember the famous lines from his “Ode to the West Wind”: “I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed!” ๐
