Down Where the Roses Bloom

Down where roses bloom in the month of June The scented petals will mature and fall Carried by zephrys of spring like balloons Those petals in the wind over land sprawl Pale pink petals carried away to land With a gental touch of kindness caress The spring grasses with a delicate hand Courteous as it lands with politesse Each petal waits in turn to fly away Their patience is long, each holds 'til time They then 'pon the wind float and not betray The Spirit within which is one sublime Down where the roses bloom may the fruit grow Let love lead as petals upon wind flow Sponsor: Gail Angel Doyle Contest: Petals In The Wind Written this 23rd day of January 2013 Written by: Sara Kendrick

I like the way you put this together . Roses remind me of my mother, our driveway had a row of 8 rose bushes on one side. grew- up in country side of town.
