A rose so mute


My dear mother just came in
and set a rose upon my desk;
it was pink and picturesque.
I wished that I it could paint
and do justice to its fate:
For it will simply stand up straight
without one single complaint
for it is as mute as a stone
but oh so beautiful on its own.

Yes a rose does hold a beauty so rare that not even we being human can do it justice. This was wonderful Lea, good Job. : )
