delivered to my door each rose a message like the year before the first is one of love but promises no more the second speaks of freedom and the opening of a door the third speaks of devotion on friendship thoughts galore the forth is of emotion that I couldn't and don't ignore the fifth is one of rest reminds me of what's in store sixth speaks of dreams gone by which can never be restored the seventh is of heaven a price we can't afford the eight is one of wonder not a knight but a Lord the ninth is of blessing and is a true reward the tenth a kindly thought elevnth, the last before the end A rainbow cherished and more twelve..a very much loved friend ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions.

I like this one, it's just a pity there weren't more roses so it could have been longer. ------------------ Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

The title grabbed me on this one--I love roses--and this poem was just beautiful, RainbowGirl. May I print it? ------------------ *Elizabeth* "Dwelt a maid belov'd and cherish'd by high and low, But with autumn leaf she perish'd, long time ago..." "Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near..." |

Balladeer...would you quit stealing the good lines!!! I was going to say, RG, before Bal so rudely interrupted, that you are like into a rose yourself!  |

Finally had a chance to read; and in seeing all of the wonderful responses, wondered that no one commented on "pale" for indeed, this was not a "pale" piece, but one at which every heart "leaped". Between your beautiful roses, and the sincere flattery, I imagine it is more like spring in your heart than November 2. Good job, RG! |
