Arrias and His Muse: First Rose
So, walked Rosey about an hour ago, and an addition since morning – the first rose bloomed!
First Rose
Warm sun, blue sky, a brilliant flash of red,
A single flower perched on a stem,
Glorious summer has arrived,
The first rose, nature’s gem.
A hundred other buds are set to bloom,
A feast for my eyes and my nose,
But here’s the first, an Angel’s gift,
A simple flower, a perfect rose.
