The rose, the unfading rose
not sing, what is
weight and fragrance, that of black
garden during the night,
to any garden and every night,
the rose that rises from the ashes pale
the art of alchemy, the rose of the Persian
and Ariosto,
that is always alone, always
what is the rose of roses, the young flower
Platonic
the fiery pink and blind not sing,
rose unreachable (Jorge Luis Borges)
(oil painting by Rosa)
