Blushing Bloom
In a garden where beauty lies in sweet repose
A summer breeze caresses the blushing rose
And it releases its sweet perfume
which makes a painted lady assume
It is an invitation to visit the seductive bloom
The blazing sun's fiery eyes singe the lovely flower
Causing it to hang its delicate head
Patiently it waits for an encouraging rain shower
But it's the sun's harsh gaze she dreads
When heroic clouds obscure the sun
The grateful rose lifts its sunburnt face
Composing itself before day is done
But still longing to bathe in raindrops grace
When the velvet night relents to bright eyed dawn
The rose is soothed by morning dew
As it shines with beauty in the morn
Gazing at skies of periwinkle blue
But she smiles when gray clouds form
As the sun hides from the thunderstorm
And when the rain comes tumbling down
She bathes in the beauty of her crimson crown
