An Ode to Rose
Beautiful flower born wild and free
Symbol of burning passion
Symbol of lasting friendship
Symbol of innocence, purity, youth
Beautiful flower grown wild and free
You are a many faced bloom
Red like blood, and love
Yellow like joy and sun
White like new fallen snow
Beautiful flower grown wild and free
Beauty yet danger are thee
Prickly like needles, vicious and sharp
A defence grown to protect beauty
A warning to those who wish to take
That which beauty gave the wild
A symbol of wild and beauty's love
A symbol of their friendships strength
A symbol of their nievity
To the dangers posed to wild and beauty
Beautiful flower grown wild and free
Coveted by those who want beauty for them
Coveted by those who kill the wild
Beautiful flower once wild and free
A symbol of wild and beauty's death
A symbol of their final breath
Protected by thorns born of lost nievity, Rose
