Valentine to Rose Lynn
The Red Rose is a beauteous flower
Admired and loved where'er 'tis seen,
But not for shape or hue alone
The Red Rose is the Garden's Queen.
No, 'tis because her blushing leaves
With grateful odours fill the air,
Discoloured, dead yet fragrant still
Those leaves are treasured up with care.
Thou art a living, breathing Rose
Then be the Rose's sweetness thine
And still when time has faded thee
I'll be thy loving Valentine.
Admired and loved where'er 'tis seen,

Discoloured, dead yet fragrant still
Those leaves are treasured up with care.
Thou art a living, breathing Rose
Then be the Rose's sweetness thine
And still when time has faded thee
I'll be thy loving Valentine.
