This is a great entry for the 575 flower poem contest. Your syllable count is correct. You have told a lovely story about the quiet beauty of this rose. Great job and thank you for sharing.

Lovely! Some of those old-fashioned roses have the most heavenly scent. I think we have one like the one in the picture, but I'm not sure what it's called. I know that there's a David Austin rose, "Miss Alice", that's very similar.

This is a short sweet poem. The tone is classic and traditional, much like the picture you chose to go with it. It is a respectable contest entry which well meets the required style.
