Roses (Pleiades)

Regal blossoms of red,
randomly formed petals.
Resplendently elegant,
redolently fragrant.
Radiance emanates,
rejoice their splendor as,
romanticized flowers.

**********************************************
Pleiades - This titled form was invented in 1999 by Craig Tigerman, Sol Magazine's Lead Editor. Only one word is allowed in the title followed by a single seven-line stanza. The first word in each line begins with the same letter as the title. Hortensia Anderson, a popular haiku and tanka poet, added her own requirement of restricting the line length to six syllables.
