WHITE ROSE AND LOVE
By: felix l perry
the petals of the white rose
are soft and velvet to the touch
like words you whisper to me
words of love I crave so much
like the rose your fragrance
lingers long in the lonely air
it even lingers on the pillow
though you're no longer here
a rose is framed in greenery
thorns protect its pure design
if you try to pick too quickly
it will hurt you every time
yet if it is picked real gentle
nourished with respect and care
like the rose love will flourish
love's beauty is meant to share
"If I have to be this girl in me, Then I may as well be."
A rose is a delicate thing!!
Love Tinka
