Roses For Thee
By © Richard Budig 1996

I found them by the fence
In the early morning dew
Wild country roses
That made me think of you

They nestled by the gate
There upon the ground
The way we used to cuddle
Like puppies in a pound

I couldn't help myself.
So I picked a few,
These dewy little flowers,
Jeweled with tears for you

Their scent was sweet
Upon the morning air.
I missed you so much,
I wished you were there

So I held them and prayed,
O' please, come back to me,
For don't you see, I have
Sweet red roses for thee

You are a polished poet.
