Roses Of England Poem by John Knight
Roses Of England
There are hundreds of English roses and they all have such beautiful names. I have selected 26 to compile an alphabetical bed of perfect English Roses. This poem is dedicated to all the beautiful and fragrant roses in the charming PH Family!
Absolutely Fabulous - for twenty ten - top grade
Buxom Beauty - looks voluptuous in deepest pink
Cloud Nine - is where I'm quietly sitting in the shade
Deep Secret - comes in darkest red - to make me think!
Eyecatcher - with her carmine cloak - she will catch your eye
Fascination - chooses pink to lure you with her charms
Golden Smiles - so sunny yellow - please don't pass her by
Heart of Gold - will welcome you in her sun bronzed arms!
Ice Cream - is a pure white flower - elegant and cool
Jacqueline du Pre - will play a pure and fragrant tune
Knight's Lady - is a perfect flower for your vestibule
Lovely Lady - slinky pinky - with scent to make you swoon!
Mystery Girl - in lemon really makes you guess
Nostalgia - in cream edged cherry really makes you think
Ophelia - in purest white whose name means 'I will Bless'
Pure Bliss - has cool pink petals which feel as soft as mink!
Question Mark - a rose between a hybrid and your bed
Remember Me - still virgin white - so you won't regret
Scented Memories - are yellow gently tinged with red
Teasing Georgia - rose with sweet cupped blooms - I never will forget!
Utiopia - with her orange blooms - to which we all aspire
Valencia - is deepest gold a perfect hybrid tea
Warm Wishes - lift my spirits up higher and then higher
X-ray - white and transparent - can she really see through me?
Yesterday - all our blessings seemed so very very far away
Zepher Breezes - hopefully will blow them back again TODAY!

What an interesting story of the English roses. I once received yellow roses; they were incredibly cheerful. But I love the line about the white roses: can she really see through me..so cute, lol. Yes, of course we women can see straight through you men sometimes, but it only makes us love you all the more..(smile)
