Wild Roses I gathered wild roses in a field With thistle and thorn for more bouquet. But had no cloth or protective shield And tore my hands on the touch and gay. They have a mystery all their own Served wine red with bouquets of sigh They are not catered or sewn or grown But ever catch the passers eye. They serve their beauty to pollinate A clever negotiate with pretense Pay nectar for a passenger freight With a thorn filled stem for its defense. There are roses and roses you know And they all have thorns about the stem So be careful what you cut and sew Thorns are the cost and price of them. A rose, is a rose, is a rose Similar, but different enclose. |

each petal unfolded brings scent to bloom I would scatter them about thy room wielding thorn in mine own hand to allow you view the color so grand You know I enjoyed this so very, very much.... |
