Companionship

Hey little rose, white, white, lofty and bright, I want you to accompany me tonight. Stir your sweet smiling petal, scatter your fragrance over my head, come and lie with me in bed. Sweet rose of the night, familiar with my breath, come a little closer and make me sweat. Open your strong shining petals and mesmerize me with your flavor. Oh sweet rose of the night you are a mystical savor. ©2013 Christine Phillips
