A Pink Rose

-

Days come and go,

Hours pass and people flow

This weekend, though,

Time will stop and the moon will glow

The stars will dance

And the birds will chant!

-

It isn't everyday that a rose is born

A pink one, no less, with sweet flesh tones

She is the star of this summer sky!

A tribute to beauty and all flowers alike

She comes to us by way of luck and through chance

Only to beautify it all with her charm!

-

She is, of course, the inspiration of this short verse

One heartfelt dedication to her gleaming grace!
