Winter Roses
Winter Roses
Bite of bitter blues
Winter’s wanton gloomy ghost
Haunts the Halls of Hope
This chill kills, no frills
This frozen frost, crispy feet
Wish I was inside
Wish you were beside
Christmas lights to smile and see
Memories don't fade
Green is painted white
Blooms hide, bulbs stir, life moves on
All except your rose
Each year at this time
She appears here to remind
Beauty still surrounds
Wild, you warm my heart
Colour of snow yet glowing
Love lingers on leaves
How I miss you, Rose
Your smile that nature adopts
Still the flower grows
Another winter
Another year of absence
Rest peacefully child
