Bed of Roses

See the red
Through the light
And the light
Through the red
This delightful shade
As natures fed

With petals of silk
It's folds so fine
Emerald green stems
Thorn like spine

Scented so sweet
Aromatic flow
This queen of flowers
A regal grow

This plant of plants
Delights our noses
In their wonderful setting
Bed of Roses
