TO ROSE




TO ROSE


How beautiful you were that day

I spotted you from far away

I planned to steal and make you mine

but had to wait for just the right time


Till opportunity seemed to say

take her now carry her away

far away to home I went

and planted a garden, such time I spent


To see that all was properly set

just enough shade ground not too wet

such beauty in the midst must go

 not for anything less than show


O rose, o rose, so soft, so soft

so pleasing to the eye and yet

your fragrance lingers everywhere

you deserve the love you get


I covered you so well when Winters frost

bit the ground

and love

you were not lost


Like a parent, lover, friend

I loved you till the bitter end

when one morning running outside

to bid you good day and start the day right


Such horror, shock, I let out a cry

you were gone, I thought I would die

how could some inconsiderate nin

just up, and carry you off with him?
