ONE PERFECT ROSE
A single flow’r he sent me, since wo mot. All tenderly his messenger he chose ; Deep-hearted j pure, with scented dew still wet— One perfect rose. I know the language of, the flowers; “My fragile leaves,” it said, “his heart- enclose.” Love long has taken for his amulet One perfect rose. Why is it no one over sent me yet Oho perfect limousine, do you suppose ? But no, it’s always just my luck to get One period rose. —“Life,” .New York.
