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.

One of your most beautiful poems P-man
and a perfect choice to honor Bill.

Feels like Im dancing with truth and wisdom
Precious rhythm you are my guide
These days are sacred, my heart is humble
Oh warrior show me the light

James this is exstremely thoughtful of you. You couldn't have picked a more appropraite piece then this.

You know this is my absolute favourite of yours and this just gives me another reason why I can enjoy it even more, for their is no nicer gift then one that comes from the heart. Wherever Bill is he has read this and has felt honoured.
