You can't go beyond the beauty of roses
feel how they open their hearts to you
scattered snowflakes on a green carpet
surrounding you with their sweet scent
You can't go beyond the beauty of roses


This one is the Pimpinellifolia, a wild botanic rose, one of the 200 in my garden.

Oh, oh, oh, 200 roses in your garden?  Are they all different?  Where is your garden, I want to travel through it.  Lovely photo, lovely poem.

Alan...you sure are right, thank you

Marge..I finally found out how to do this, and yes, she is a beauty, thanks

VAS....I think I have more than 200 and you're welcome to visit, but I live far away in a country house in the South of the Netherlands (Waterlandkerkje). I've just created a website with pictures, so you can visit me there. http://communities.msn.com/Titiasplace&naventryid=100
Thanks for reading

Titia

Thanks Watersign6, I'm glad you like it.

And for you Poeminister, I'm always glad to see you. Got another for you, must be on page 2 or 3 already.
