Notes About The Poem

The Lady of the Roses

Fallen petals of emotions,
Golden mistress of hearts,
Devotion.
Delicate lady stepping forward,
Upon life's stage.
It is for everlasting beauty's sake,
That variations garden tis made.
Shedding leaves of colors arrays,
And contrasting shades.
In tender layers of degrees depth
Behold lies a tokens keepsake,
 Given ever freely,
So is his heart slain beneath
 The altar at this maiden feet.
My lady of the roses, evergreen,
Tears do not yee shed.
Her simple gown gives little
Perception,
To the golden spirit living within.
She dances hearing the rhythm,
Of life itself.
Beloved soul shower thus with,
Petals diversity.
Reds loving crimson,
The white of purest innocence,
Pinks forever friendship,
And lavenders purple forgiveness
Perfections grand illusion, one single
Flower she wares
The reddish rose held behind her ear,
As a treasures gift between lovers
Divinities shared
And the waltz plays forever on.
In unison to the beating of their
Human hearts.
