The Mystery Rose, a Love Gift From Beyond

The Mystery Rose, A Love Gift From Beyond A dark, dark shadow crept into my room at night a mist or vapor that so set me ill at ease Strange that my confusion so limited my fright then it moved things around as it pleased Soon began eerie sounds that loudly cracked next my bows fell from their hanging rack Suspended in hazy fog or time it did so seem motionless and quite unable to shout a scream As I finally jumped out of my now shaking bed I tripped and fell hitting my frightened head Early morn I woke, to my great and epic shock a wilted flower lay upon my antique clock A long and so very dry ancient red, red rose yet a fragrance still so strong hit my nose! A mere dream that had been my horror to have had! except red rose was always favored by my dad Three decades gone since he had sadly passed away I know that red rose was his love gift sent my way!
