No More Roses Please
Poems vary in ways such as style, rhyme, and rhythm. “One Perfect Rose “ written by Dorothy Parker, is short but unique poem. This poem is unique because of imagery, personification and paradox.
The poem “One Perfect Rose” uses imagery in the first stanza. Imagery is defined as passes or words that stir feelings or memories through an appeal to the senses. For example, the poem states “Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet”
(Parker p 482). This gives the poem sensory of how the rose smell “scented” and feel “wet”.
The second stanza in “One Perfect Rose” uses personification. Personification is giving human qualities to nonhuman things. For instance, “I knew the language of the floweret” (p 482) stating that the women who is speaking (persona) to the flower, knew the flower’s communication.
The last stanza in the poem “One Perfect Rose” uses paradox. A paradox is an apparently contradictory statement that upon examination makes sense. For example, “Why is it no one ever sent me yet one perfect limousine” (p 482).
