Notes About The Poem

White Roses

Lovely roses adorned in white
    filled the white church.
Their fragrance floats through
                 the air
filling the nostrils of awaited
                 guest.
  White rose petals are used
as a trail for a blushing bride.
   White roses are used in a 
       sacred ceremony as
     two souls become one.
