A Few Words Sent Admiring You, Our Rose

A Few Words Sent Admiring You, Our Rose

A few words sent admiring you, our rose
cast forth to honor beauty, its delights.
World has a great many but they it chose
to radiantly glow within our sights.

Verses designed to give honor in prose
proclaiming depths and blessings that you give.
Tho thy chosen path, my not us have chose
you loved true, creating the life we live.

When the depths of thy tender heart is seen
the rose's magnificence fails to surpass.
A blessing to us thy love is so keen
to teach us to love and honor amass.

Yes sweet mothers, thy true love is our rose.
We love thy all, from thy head to thy toes.
