The Yellow Texas Rose
by Steve Patterson → (All Poetry by Steve Patterson)
  
Share   Print  Save   Follow   Share on Facebook

in the cold Texas winters,
in the hot Texas summers,
man those can be bummers,
in the windy Texas springs,
or in the rainy Texas falls,
each season, each & all,
no matter what the weather brings
one thing
you'll knows
you'll always find
peace of mind
with the Yellow Texas Rose.

there by a tall Texas palm,
under a swaying Texas mesquite,
it's neat,
even under a lonely old Texas oak,
us Texas folk
knows
where ever we goes
we'll find the Yellow Texas Rose.

down along the Gulf Coast Plains,
out in the barren West Texas range,
in the East Texas pines,
even there you'll find
the Yellow Texas Rose.
thru the rolling Texas hills
among the fields of bluebonnets,
like a bright yellow sonnet,
it still grows,
it still glows,
the Yellow Texas Rose.

and if you're from Texas,
maybe even if you're not,
you'll know what
the Yellow Texas Rose means..
that is, if ya' ain't too lean.

It means our Hearts.
It means our wholes.
It means our tall Texas souls.

and when i cast my eyes
across the tall Texas skys,
i always knows
whys
i love the Yellow Texas Rose...
it reminds me of you
and a love that was true .

The Yellow Texas Rose
knows
i love you still.
and the Yellow Texas Rose
knows
i always will.
