Roses red with the flames teeming of fire,
Mirrored their poise glowing free in their briar.
Their hearts rousing in poise are mounting higher
To heaven's dainty air they do aspire.
Aspiration revolved like wind they ride
Much onto estate promising well in tide.
In clouds of flawless beauty they abide,
Favour from providence is on their side.
Dawn streaming in their veins with light to shine,
Of vision victory stays in their line.
Perch onto dark never will they from light,
For stay they will in their spirits in flight.
Air borne to ascend, roses red hit the sky,
Smog-viewed such has been to mediocre eye.
