She was pursued
by a throng of suitors,
as his one shy rose
wooed her
with idling patience
in tentative
low gear,
but when he accelerated,
boastful,
certainly sure,
he flew preoccupied
off an unseen curve
and never returned.
Now a sculpture
of twisted petals
dance in sardonic curves
around a shrunken heart
in a vase
without water.

Quotes
I may no longer breathe
Without breathing you.
- Quote by Judith Pordon
The actual Blue Rose murders,
which lie at the core of the
three novels, yield various
incorrect solutions which
assume the status of truth.
