Oh Sweet Rose Of My Dreams Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Oh sweet rose of my dreams
Where have you been?
Now everything in twilight seems
Icy and darkish mean
Inside flowers and garden
Can’t follow this all up
As winter brings more harden
For each little blooming cup

But day will come again
When you will rise to be
With color gorgeous regimen
For all the love to see
Your heart will grow with wings
To give a rose's fragrance
Soon as new springtime sings
To bring down wintry flagrance

My heart oh now be still
In our pondering dreams
For wishes will come to fulfill
The river when it streams
Though now it’s dark and dim
In every aspect and hour
Our love will once more trim
The cups of the passion flower
