Revered Red Rose

revered red rose

plucked perfection

silken sheen of sworn silphium

passion implied through echoed glances

sparking bursts amid darkness reborn

gaze into ephemeral beauty

bathe now in the sweet aroma

ardently drink of its naked nectar

meandering through the copious crevices

the coming onset of the scarab horde persists

as breaths of dormant decay allay the boatman

reaping what was smote, in amorous embalming

witness the wanton wilting of lilting languish

spill unto the fetid fragrance freed

silence seeds the silt that striates solemnly

in semblances of stranded sky dust blanched

await the reunion of remnants restructured

[Coyote Poetry]

Amazing use of words.
"the coming onset of the scarab horde persists
as breaths of dormant decay allay the boatman
reaping what was smote, in amorous embalming"
The above lines stood out to me. You create visions and you leave a lot for the reader to ponder. You are a example of proper description. Making every scene come alive in your words. Thank you for sharing your amazing poetry.
