THE ROSE
written by tyosdream11:08 AM 2/13/05Soft velvet petals
The color of sweet red wine
With an intoxicating fragrance
That hints of love divine.
So many smiles are due to you
For you make the perfect gift
To the kind and gentle lover
Whose spirits you shall lift.
Your petals spread beneath the feet
Of a princess as she goes
Your touch as soft as woven silk
Against her dainty toes.
Revered throughout the ages,
Your beauty has been known
To be the symbol of deepest love
And the way that it is shown.
Wherever the splendor of your beauty is beheld
The spirit of romance flows,
So much in love is owed to you;
Oh wonderous, sweet red rose. |
