The Red Rose

A pure red rose I send to you 
It carries love from me 
Believe in all you know to be true
The rose will bloom eternally .

Its fragrance forever will allure 
The petals will be as soft as lace 
Keep it safe and forevermore
True love you will embrace .

Every morning when you open your eyes
You will feel contented bliss 
Your heart a whirl of butterflies 
As my loving rose you kiss .

Safely in your bible pressed 
My rose was in heaven made 
Feel the warmth of gods caress
The rose of love will never fade .

Bask in the glory of forever 
Give praise to god above
Let us march through this life together
Sharing the red rose of true love.

ahhh, what a sweet one I somehow overlooked!!! I came by one last time also to answer your question on my onion poem. It is nonet form. I actually have written many more etheree than nonets. Etherees are ten lines and the syllable count reduces by one syllable going from ten syllable line down to one. Nonet goes from nine down to one. that poem, BTW, I forgot to enter in Freddie's nonet contest and I am so mad at myself now.
