A GIFT OF WINTER ROSES

Surely my dear, you are quite fair

And to your beauty, none compare.

But if I have been mistaken…

And more’s to be seen below skin,

Just say so; we’ll try to repair.

For you see, oh my dear sweet Rose,

This was not meant to be just prose,

But a dose of sweet love that froze

When you told me, “It just can’t be,

“because things can’t be this rosy.”

Yet I stand, my heart in pieces.

Waiting for you to see how true

And deep my love could run for you.

And I’ll wait here till hell freezes,

With a gift of winter roses.
