Explication of “One Perfect Rose” In the short poem “One Perfect Rose” by Dorothy Parker, she writes about a gift she received that touches her more than anything, a perfect rose. The reader would look at this poem and think it’s a love story about two separated lovers in a time of work or need, and that the rose will symbolize love between the two people until he returns for her. Upon looking at the poem and breaking it down, the reader can assume different meanings of the poem. In the first line of the first stanza, it reads “A single flow’r he sent me, since we met.” From this line we can see that she’s referring to the past that when they met, her lover gave her a single flower. The reader can also see that “flow’r” is differentiated from “flower”.
One can consider that “She was too kind” is the greatest poem ever because when one understand the history of the poem between the poet and Eliza, it can be determined that the poet used imagery, repetition and alliteration to convey the tragic love between Miss Savage and the poet himself.

The poet’s history and the critic’s history is intertwined as it is about Samuel’s love life. The poet was married to a woman named Ms. Morgan Herbert, who was a widow. When Samuel returned to Britain from his trip to New Zealand, he met Eliza Savage in person.

Love is seen through an abstract way in Lord Byron’s poem “She Walks in Beauty.” The poem is speaking of a woman’s inner beauty. He uses beautiful metaphors to describe a woman’s inner and outer beauty coming together in perfect harmony. Byron is doing nothing more than capturing the essence of a woman. Talking about a woman’s inner beauty that reflects her outer shell what Byron has done. Only a person who loves another can truly see their inner beauty.
That Jose chooses to sing a song about a weary life, obviously something she is unacquainted with, has to be ironic: in the Sheridan family, weariness and sorrow are merely lyrics to be mocked. Mansfield's exquisite use of imagery is as telling as her irony. For example, the flower imagery throughout the story serves to keep the reader reminded of the delicacy of Laura's world. The flowers are splendid, beautiful, and—what is not stated—short-lived. Laura, too, is beautiful, radiant, flower-like.
