Roses stand tall
so proud, they could
But some roses are quite often misunderstood
The yellow rose of sunshine and bliss
is one of those roses that none should miss
Its lesser rose cousin is often called lazy
this yellow delinquent is known as the Daisy
The roses most lost are the roses of frost
and always so sure this rose is the cure
this rose of delight is the purest of white
The white roses cousin, who has no relation
bent by the water is the snowy carnation
the last rose we all miss
is a rose , oh quite old
but the queen of the roses is the shiniest gold
