Upon a springtime garden walk A row of roses beckoned me, And I, delighted that roses talk, Stopped and listened, to pay them heed. The white rose begged no finer fate Than to be envased upon thy sill To greet thee each morn as thou awakes To glow and sing, thy desires to fill. The yellow rose, my Lady Fair, Requested all its flower crushed, Its scent a rinse in thine fair hair To linger there, your fragrance touched. An orange rose, though to mine watchful eye A bit more red than yellow hued, It asked to tint thine elven eyes With moods of sunlit attitudes. O, pink rose, it hath prayed a place Its one appeal, upon thy cheeks To grace the smile upon thy face To find the tears of joy it seeks. But, Oh! my Lady, roses red Beseech to touch thy golden skin, Entreat thee to lie upon a bed, The one that love's true love lies in. I know how much you love roses love, RJ [This message has been edited by windwarrior_RJ (edited 03-19-2001).] |

(sigh) Oh, Rick, this was so sweet and beautiful! 9sigh) You show such beautiful pure love through the beauty of nature's daughters, sweet roses. Oh, I love roses too, I love how you described each one with a piece of love. She is a very lucky lady! (sigh) You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing!

Though the rose has long been a favoured subject of romantic poetry, to give each colour a voice of its own is a rather unique concept. Nicely done, thanks for it. Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
