A Rose by no other name
by Stephanie KentRoses come in so many different colors
I cannot discover which color belongs to me...
-------
I'm not stunning or sophisticated, like the
Red Rose
I'm not quiet and gentle, like the
Pink Rose
I'm not bonny and welcoming, like the
Yellow Rose
I'm not even exotic or ethereal, like the
Blue Rose
-------
My Rose must be different...
Patiently colorless
A Waiting Rose...
A
White
Rose
Waiting for the color that I have yet to find 07/01/2003 Posted on 07/02/2003

Very good. I love different colors of roses, some of the scents I like, not all. They each have thier own scents. Good work. Jean |
