The English Rose

The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
Oh, the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.

But I send you a cream-white rose bud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.

 

 

 

 

 

I bought myself this book about flowers, most of them roses. Different species,  types, colors, shapes, decorations and pictures. There is nothing better than wandering into the garden on a summers evening, and being surrounded with the scent of roses. 

I am planning on having the most wonderful rose garden with old vases and benches and pebbles alleys and English roses. Of course, when we will have our own wonderful house. :)
