This Love

Oh! That this rose be a symbol of love
perfect it blooms- your beauty it holds
your perfumed scent in the fragrance of
and lo theses thorns pierce just as bold

This rose compares to love-- its beauty allures--wonderfully said my friend. The ending line is so true. All the best Sandy--good change of tone from The Raven.
