Love Is Like a Rose
ALL THE LOVE THAT HISTORY KNOW
IS SAID TO BE IN EVER ROSE
YET ALL THAT COULA BE FOUND IN TWO
IS LESS THAN WHAT I FEEL FOR U
AND THE WHITE ROSE BREATHES OF LOVE
OH THE RED ROSE IS FALCON
AND THE WHITE ROSE IS A DOVE
BUT I SEND YOU CREAM-WHITE ROSEBUD
WITH A FLISH ON ITS PETAL TIPS
FOR THE LOVE THAT IS PUREST AND SWEETEST
HAD A KISS OF DESIRE ON THE LIPS
