10,837. CLASSIC WORDPLAY

CLASSIC WORDPLAY
In reading deep history I find
myself asking : 'Why would 
Aphrodite give a rose 
to her son Eros?*
--------
*the rose is based on the Greek myth that Aphrodite (Latin Venus) gave a rose to her son Eros (Latin Cupid); Eros then gave the rose to Harpocrates, the god of silence and secrets, to ensure that Aphrodite’s dalliances remained hidden.
