Roses Roses Roses Fairly they excel with beauty Seen from my window whence I awake Ajar the scent whiffs in as the dawn breaks Cool kiss upon my face Lace expression of emotion with grace Withered soul age has brought about A child within lured out A chair amongst the roses worn bare Lingers in the garden there Roses Roses Roses Fairly they excel with beauty A sip from my cup of tea Under the big willow tree Spring breeze blew its mirth of foreplay Banners of verdant green slightly sway Roses Roses Roses Fairly they excel with beauty Withered soul age has brought about A child within lured out 11/18/2016

Ahh!! They are covered with thorns but aren't those roses sweet? The person who tends them reaches a point where they have to sit in a chair to do the tending as well enjoy them. Congrats on this winner. Sara

I too love roses, Mrs Eve. They do have a tendency to make one dream of love:)

Those last two lines are so worthy of cherishing. This is beautiful, Eve... as lovely as the rose garden in the picture. How I'd love to sit with you there and take a sweet whiff of those roses. I shall bring the tea!
