TO A WILD ROSE
As I saunter through the brambly woodland
My peepers behold an alluring rose
The black eyed susan, felt modest as gust trickled all over
How beguiling it seemed, as it said
I would stop the clocks from turning, turning
And let the breeze flow
I'll fade your scars
I'll heal your wounds
Tell me how you feel
I'll keep your scars hidden
Under my sleeve
I won't mention how much they bleed
And, as i srood there
Thanking God for his wonderful creation
My eyes are blinded as a squall arrived
Oh! the rose is not there, nowhere
I staggered, ran here, searched there
and, ...and at last,
I heard its voice ,from a mount of grime
trembling, shaking, as it said for the last time
Oh wow! oh wow! oh wow!
Tears fill my eyes
Regret fills my mind
Emptiness is left behind
As i stood there, crying, lamenting
And praying, for the wild rose, for the wild rose
