Am glad you liked the lines. (except the 3rd one.)

You describe them well. Thanks for that.

Keep writing. Take care.

No need to apologize! Those lines are beautiful.
"Flawless like moonlight" could mean the purity of the color of the rose. "Showered by rain" also describes the process of a flower growing (how a rose is born). Is this what you were thinking? I'm very happy my poem inspired another work!

These lines just popped in my mind immediately after i read your lines.

Apologies in advance, that I wrote them without your consent.

Please let me know if you like them?
