A ROSE-BUD GLIMPSED ON MORNING WALK ~ KYRIELLE
This was inspired by "A Rose-Bud By My Early Walk" by Robert Burns.
http://www.robertburns.org/works/193.shtml Her queenly grace unfolds in June,
outshining e'en the brightest moon.
She greets her court in floral frock,
a rose-bud glimpsed on morning walk.
By dawn her crimson beauty spread,
still dripping rich with dewy head;
deep ruby grown in garden rock,
a rose-bud glimpsed on morning walk.
Her lush attire is petal-soft
and nature's pride holds gem aloft
to shadow blooms who think to mock,
a rose-bud glimpsed on morning walk.
