Black Rose

Written by Posted on Less than 0 min read

Fascinating roses of fragrance and hues
Red, yellow, orange, green, and white
Scarlet, crimson, vermilion, and purple
Peach, lavender, ivory, salmon, and blue
Are found everywhere; attract and distract
As viewers’ envy and connoisseur’s muse.

But, the Halfeti in south-eastern Turkey is
Only site where black roses naturally grow
Nick-named “Karagul” in Turkish language
Have sweet aroma and color dark red-wine
That turns to black hue in the summer time:
Symbolize mourning, mystery and elegance.
