Free Cee a Rose By Any Other Fame
A ROSE BY ANY OTHER FAME
She could be harsh when harshness was called for
but a lady when her countenance was divine demanded she be so
she won't be sitting up half the night anymore
and in the morning granting a smile to those she came to know
I would see her waiting in anticipation
hardly ever displaying her aggravation
as the potions that kept her alive kept her waiting
arguing, fussing, fighting but never hating
just a justifiable pity for any hardened one
and would leave silently when she felt her job was done
I will see her always sitting in that seat
a bit rambunctious at times but always discreet
always a part but never the center of attention in a crowd
so rest in peace resplendent Rose, and wave to us from upon a violet cloud
written with honor and respect for one of us
now gone, but to never be deemed
forgotten by ~free!~
