In English:

Fuchsia smells like

newly washed, perfumed roses

that stand on top

of the nightstand.

Fuchsia looks like

a long, flowing, bewitching, fashionable sequin hot pink strapless dress

that falls to your ankles.

Fuchsia feels like

a tiny spray

of fragrant, revitalizing geranium oil

on your smooth hands.

Fuchsia tastes like

a gigantic bowl

of toothsome, fruity, exotic, and luscious

dragonfruit sorbet.

Fuchsia sounds like

a jazzy and mellow song

sung by

your talented loved one.

In Russian (with Cyrillic letters):

Фуксия пахнет как

свежевымытый, ароматные розы

которые стоят на вершине

тумбочки.

Фуксия выглядит как

длинное, струящееся, чарующее,

модное ярко-розовое платье без бретелек с палетками

что падает до щикотолок.

Фуксия похожа на

крошечный спрей

ароматного восстанавливающего масла герани

на твоих гладких руках.

Фуксия на вкус как

гигантская миска фруктовый, экзотический и сочный

сорбет из драконьего фрукта.

Фуксия звучит как

джазовая и спокойная песня

в исполнении

твой талантлывый любимый человек.

In Russian (with English letters):

Fuksiya pakhnet kak

svezhevymytyi, aromatnye rosy

kotorye stoyat na vershine

tumbochki.

Fuksiya vyglyadit kak

dlinnoye, ctruyascheesya, charuyuscheye,

modnoye yarko-rosovoye plat'ye bez bretelek s paletkami

chto padayet do schikolotok.

Fuksiya pokhozha na

kroshechnyi sprei

aromatnovo vosstanavlivayuschevo masla gerani

na tvoikh gladikh rukakh.

Fuksiya na vkus kak

gigantskaya miska fruktovyi, ekzoticheskii i sochnyi

sorbyet is drakon'evo frukta.

Fuksiya zvuchit kak

djazovaya i spakoinaya pesnya

v ispolnenii

tvoi talantlivyi lyubimyi chelovek.
