Maid Marion

Fallen tis ethereal rose,
Enraptured by moon glows.
Comely blossom inhales,
Chasing petrichor trails.

Raindrops fall, thirst chastised,
Supple tender petals baptized.
Ambrosial lofty sighs,
Wafts ignite fireflies.

Harvest, not felled bellicose,
She most fickle as it grows.
Callous thorns deeply lance,
Should one pluck by chance.

Rapturous aromatic night,
Mourn not omitted sunlight.
Disgraced, tethered to stone,
Cosmic descent well known.

It is said she, fell from grace,
Renowned for angelic face.
Vanity downfall, deadliest sin,
Charity only deep as lush skin.

Mortality claimed befall,
Seedling adhered garden wall.
Steadfast enchantress grows,
Reborn, Maid Marion rose.

Envious of lambent stars above,
She bereft of heaven's love.
Thriving in dusk sublime,
Halo shone, once upon a time.
