If roses were poems
would they bloom
poetic blossoms
with anodyne rhymes,
and ambrosian perfumes?

nice thought provocative mini poem...in my opinion you may see if it works better by deleting "what" in L2 and move the question mark at the end....just my thought...

Much appreciate the read and your talented thought to ameliorate this mini poetic thought.
Thank you.

good to know Rula that the suggestion worked for you...forgot to mention in the previous comment on how nicely you have created the title...

now coming back to the question

If roses were poems......?

i can only say you have taken me on another thought wave...

It's always good to know that you've been an inspiration to others.
Always curious to see how should others think about the same title/theme...etc.
Isn't that wonderful?

They' be so only
if written well
those written badly
would surely smell...............stan

perhaps one of the poems the roses would bloom could be

see me, touch me, feel me
don't pluck me
inhale my essence
"live, let live
life is vulnerable
make most of it
rise above thorns
be dignified"

--Ms. Rose

I'm a fashionable girl
wearing frocks in ethnic colors
seducing bees and butterflies
they flirt, kiss, tap dance
get hooked on my honey
keep returning for more
Alas! if they had noses
would get mesmerized
by my intimate aroma

Roses we love
as roses symbolize
last word above
give me a rose
and say
which girl does not
with Lovedly want to play
a game of Love
lol
lovely display

shall add more
if only Rula does agree
why in the storm
bash her poets greenery

poetry 3...
is in the thinking
will ink it at the appropriate time
yes but naturally timely

I am with you
through thick and thin
changing hands on Valentine's

I am with you
when church bells ring
and you say I do

I am with you
when it's time to bid adieu
paying my tributes in dew
