A White Rose by maggiemae

A White Rose

THE red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.

But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips

John Boyle O'Reilly :

Three good things:
1.Watching One Day Cricket is not as boring as a Test Match.
2. A bowl full of fresh raspberries from the garden.
3. Dreams of what we would do if we had tons of money!
Beautifully done, Maggiemae!!

This rose whispers of winter
with a hint of snow in the frame.
It's here by the grace of internet
and Maggiemae's kodak acclaim.
