Blessed Rose

Oh~blessed rose~you grow within my heart,
how bright the light that shines with love's glory,
from thy wondrous glory~never to part,
blessed rose~you are my own love story.

What glory divine~my eyes ever see,
when my eyes do look upon your dear grace,
my most blessed rose you shall ever be,
as I hold you within a lover's embrace.

Come to me now on the breath of a sigh,
my blessed rose~breathe now into my soul,
before us, there shall never be a goodbye,
the love in our hearts, we shall ever control.

From soul to soul we never come to part,
oh~blessed rose~you grow within my heart.

Imagery, depth, message, romanticism - all are tops by this old poet's judgement. A gem and a fav....

I really love it that we may press our most beautiful rose between the pages of a book to keep always too. I have a rose bud pressed from over 60 years ago. Your sonnet is exceptional Mike. It is so wonderful to have you back with us. Keep well. Hugs and Blessings xxoo
