Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Early Bloom

I am a red rose bud just sold

To a Romeo who I bet

Is young at heart with deed of old,

To give me to his Juliet.

I heard the florist tell him that

I should be blooming, yes for sure,

By the time he did arrive at

The balcony to give to her.

But I am in no hurry to

Rush the process that only will

Hasten ultimate wilt to do.

But Romeo has yearn to fill.

I feel forced blooming coming from

Impatient pressing of his thumb.
