Another rose from you. A gesture of your love. Or so you say. A rose to remind me of you While you're away. It's beautiful as always You seem to find the best, Long-stemmed and red. But will it keep me warm Alone in my bed? Don't misunderstand me I love roses from you And I have from the start But this time, I wish that instead of one more rose, You had given me your heart. ------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl [This message has been edited by Sven (edited 11-29-1999).] |

"You can tell me you love me a thousand times, but I'd feel it more in just one touch." Very well said, Sven, I truly can relate to this one. Michael |

Very beautiful poem...I really enjoyed reading... "Thirsting for a Love's touch can strain one's heart much To be with them in your eye you would feel ever so high So take with you my rose this I hope you will know within it lies my precious Love for you are my purest Dove." Looking forward to seeing more from you. ------------------ Deverone "We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out". ----Ray Bradbury--- |

Thank you Jaguar. . . It would seem that you and I have much in common. . . 'Tis no power my friend That made me open your doors But do walk through, and in the end You will find that love will be yours. . . Sven ------------------ That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
