my rose

micropoem

Original in Spanish

I hold a rose, a beautiful rose in my hands.Between my careful fingers I caress itand feel that its body is fragileand that its petals of blazing red are like soft silk.I bring it close to my face and close my eyes.My lip brushes a cool petal and is moistened by its dew,and I breathe in its exquisite fragrance.

My love, it is so much like you…
