Love, Like a Rose

Love, Like a Rose… Love, like delicate petals of bud rose, Kiss me - wake me from my grey daydreaming Walk in first light where the sun transposes From moonlight’s silver shadows revealing. Love, like tender color of the rose, caress me, Brush away the thorns protecting my soft heart; Cast off your thorny sheath so I may see Blossoms open – ecstasy you impart. Love, like the fragile rose with fire, embrace me As your cherished prize winning bloom Trace your fingertips along my bursting seeds Rejoice - your plan born from your fertile womb. Love, like fragrance lingering in the rose, Leave your scent in a perfumed afterglow!
