Only a rose
Deep red red roses
So soft and so smooth
They have such a sweet scent
Making my heart move
This colourful red rose
Is England’s treasure
Filling one’s heart
Giving so much pleasure
A fresh and fragile flower
It is the bright red rose
With it’s crimson soft petals
Beginning to unclose
Red roses are a sign of love
So I smile at a single red rose
For I know our love will grow.
More precious than even gold
Doreen E Hampshire

A lonely rose
In my Grandparents garden
Forgotten it stands, the lonely rose
An old sort with amazing colour
Like from an old book of prose
This rose lives amidst wild grass
The last token of rich memories
If it was dug out it had no chance
It would die in the debris
This lonely rose, once Grandpa’s gift
Has seen all the long gone time
Always I hope it lifts head anew
With the next Summer’s chime
