~~~A rose in a dry land~~~

A rose in a dry land
How beautiful it would be
To stand so erect in perfect majesty
Lovely beyond description
Wonderful and true
Standing in perfect loneliness
Waiting for you…

*******************

Would anyone ever understand
The loneliness of a rose
In a dry land??
Would anyone really ever see
The heartbeat and fragility
Of her majesty??
But would anyone dare
To admit the bewitching strength
Behind her seductive soft wear??

*************************

A Rose in a dry land…
How lovely and true
Standing silently
Telling of things
You may never know
A hidden promise of heaven
Of paradise regained
But any paradise on earth
Is always stained
But….
Who are we to ask for perfection
When we are too imperfect to be
Lovely roses….
Standing in perfect majesty!!!

****************************************

It's only me.......only me
I hope that would suffice eternally
