I’m dreaming of a white rose offered to me
I take her in cradling hands,
A gift that is given ever so freely
Her petals soft as the finest sand

Fair white rose, fairest of all
Plucked from the thorny bush
Oh how I can hear her lilting call
From all other roses I forsook

Holding close to breathe her in
A kiss now, mentioned not by name
Through lips red and moistened
Let the moment do all the proclaim

I suspend this breath inhaled
To cheat this dream beyond the pale

Thy couplet takes all that was
to give this love a gentle pause

~*~

PK, it is so good to see you back,
as gracious, and as delightful as ever.
