Petals of the White Rose Dreaming by the morning moon protected in a tight cocoon so pale in the gloom Petals of the white rose Stretching at the sun light smiles reflecting on its dew drop tiles a glow that’s seen for miles The waking of the white rose Delicate as the summer breeze pearly white of royal genes a queen within the garden green the blooming of the white rose Soft as love you give it when hearts should touch a frail friend before the gift of life might end The message of the white rose As we cry these tender woes and say goodbye to them we know they'll fly wherever spirits go On petals of a soft white rose. Parker (c) Feb 13, 2000 (repost from open #6) [This message has been edited by Haleyja (edited 11-02-2000).] |
