I remember some thing about a rhyme

But it passed from my mind with time

It had something to do with Moses supposes

Then something else to do with roses


Is a rose still a rose if it has no thorn?

Should such a rose have been born?

Roses the symbols of a true love

Sent from heaven, which is above.


Roses used for this county and the next

Throughout history each other they vex

One rose so white and one rose so red

For the cause many were laid dead


But now just used to show romance

But at that price, not the smallest chance

Instead other flowers to you I did send

Yet their life like roses didn't slowly end
