A rose for you my
      lovely
Plucked fresh from
      my garden
Amid the thorns 
      and brambles
There, grew an early
      rose
Pink beauty in the
      golden dusk
A jewel of love's
      youthfulness
Caressed by the
      wintery air
A sparkling, lustrous
      crown of creation

A rose for you my
      lovely
A sweet remembrance
      of days gone
In loving tenderness
Amid the jagged
      edges of a tormented 
      life
A reminder of delicate grace
      in the visions of love
A pink pearly offering
      of innocent passion
Caressing your warm presence
      with its seductive essence
A loving rose for you
      my lovely
