Once again I will take your hand
to walk thru my garden full of scent
Abraham Darby is this roses name
introduced by Austin, English fame



Climbing Shot Silk, you can see why
as she turns her face towards the sky
You'll notice her scent quite far away
thinking of a soft perfume you may



A full color bouquet she presents to you
yellow turning red her petals slowly do
An old bucket just for mere decoration
I always must gaze at her in admiration



The red rosebuds of the Albertine
are of a beauty you've never seen
She blooms only once each year
glad I can present her to you here

I hope you enjoyed your walk with me
for I like to show my roses to thee
Their scent I'm not able to profide
believe me it sets your nostrils wide



A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

I love roses. Quite a garden.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.

Lovely,
wish the fragrance could come through too,
but this is a pleasure.

I loved this post and I hope it's alright if I print out your photograghs and verses so that I may see roses every day.
You have brought such joy to my morning. Thank you for this beautiful gift

Oh my goodness Titia! Those roses would inspire me too. Beautiful roses, lovely verse. (I'm very jealous you know--I'm not a very good gardener. I love gardens and envy those who do it well, for one reason or another, I only seem to manage a few herbs).Thanks for sharing.
