Too many poems about flowers
Sonnets and prose piled to the sky
Flowers are pretty but they’re fragile
They brown and they wither as the time goes by
Then there’s the rose of the valley
Then there’s the woman right in front of me
She is my Rose of Sharon
Planted firmly for everyone to see
Oh, my Rose of Sharon
Dreams in her sigh
Time wraps around her
Tears in my eye
These are the words that mean I love you
These are the blooms alive when others have dried
These are the words that mean I love you
These are the eyes that read between the lines
The fragrant smell among the vines
Oh, my Rose of Sharon
Dreams in her sigh
Time wraps around her
Tears in my eye
