In the storm
Stands the white rose
temultuous waves
of destruction abound her

Yet tall is the white rose
strong in the face
Of the sensed doom around her
And she does not bow down

Pure is the white rose
In the compost earth
growing eternal strength
in the nights that so hurt

I see not the white rose
She is so far away
But i long to protect her
But only the words can i say

So i send her my words
And my poets heart
To help her when
there is hope to see her through

Be Strong little flower
Your heart will guide true
And as long as you want
I will always talk to you



 Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

Walter...this is a beautiful, emotional dedication...

"I see not the white rose
She is so far away
But i long to protect her
But only the words can i say

So i send her my words
And my poets heart
To help her when
there is hope to see her through"

your poets heart wrote a lovely expression.
I love this one! very nice work...as always.
take care, Janet Marie



 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.

Janet Marie

*I miss you baby...
I love you, always.*

Lovely.  So often we don't think of the little important things, thanks for the reminder.  Well written as always  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

...and what a lucky person they are to have such a warm heart and words written for them....
Most wonderful indeed!

dwells in every soul...

The white rose is a very strong symbol.  A very touching poem, Walter.
