Dr John Celes - Roses, Roses

Roses, Roses blooming bright! <br />In earth’s gardens; ‘What a sight! ’ <br />Studding plants in dawn’s dew, light; <br />And perfuming day and night! <br /> <br />Queen of flowers, roses stay; <br />Budding, blossoming en way; <br />Hues pretty, very well laid; <br />Decorating bride and maid. <br /> <br />Oh, what mind had shaped thee thus! <br />And what hearts enjoy thy bliss; <br />Thorns amongst green leaves just say, <br />‘Beauty needs protection, Aye! ’ <br /> <br />Roses, Roses petaled fine; <br />Standing glorious in sunshine; <br />Beauty unmatched on earth, thine; <br />Making garlands more divine! <br /> <br />Roses add to Mary’s crown, <br />Reciting Rosaries when; <br />Blessings and grace then come down, <br />Making souls fit for heaven! <br /> <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 06-12-2010<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/roses-roses/
