Poems About Hope With A Rose Poet: Charles Henry Webb Lady, lest they should betray, On thy lips this rose I lay. Not its petals to surprise With a hue that theirs outvies. Not to shame them to confess Fragrance of the Rose is less - Only with a rose to seal Rosebud lips, lest they reveal - Faint unfolding, in their sleep - What a rose's heart should keep. Eden since, no wizard knows Spell that bindeth like the rose - Flower of Love, the last to leave, Bud that blossomed first for Eve. With my rose for lock and key None shall pick thy lips, pardie! But to me if they unclose - All is safe beneath the rose. Life Is Too Short Poems My Pretty Rose Tree Poet: William Blake A flower was offered to me; Such a flower as May never bore. But I said I've a Pretty Rose-tree. And I passed the sweet flower o'er. Then I went to my Pretty Rose-tree: To tend her by day and by night. But my Rose turned away with jealousy: And her thorns were my only delight. Garden Poem Poet: Hilda Doolittle You are clear O rose, cut in rock, hard as the descent of hail. I could scrape the colour from the petals like spilt dye from a rock. If I could break you I could break a tree. If I could stir I could break a tree - I could break you. O wind, rend open the heat, cut apart the heat, rend it to tatters. Fruit cannot drop through this thick air - fruit cannot fall into heat that presses up and blunts the points of pears and rounds the grapes. Cut the heat - plough through it, turning it on either side of your path. Plant Your Own Garden Poem The Rose Family Poet: Robert Frost The rose is a rose, And was always a rose. But the theory now goes That the apple's a rose, And the pear is, and so's The plum, I suppose. The dear only know What will next prove a rose. You, of course, are a rose - But were always a rose. Roses, I See The Sweetest Roses Poet: Richard Henry Stoddard Roses, I see the sweetest roses, As in the cool kiosk I pass. Tied in a thousand fragrant posies. And fastened to the roof with grass. What has bewitched the grass I wonder? It is the humblest weed that grows; How comes it that it sits up yonder, And on a level with the rose? "Silence! " The grass said, and in sadness Let fall its tears in pearls of dew; "The generous man robs none of gladness. And never scorns old friends for new. I am no rose among the roses, And yet there's not a child but knows That the poor grass that tied these posies Is from the Garden of the rose!" Sweet Brier Poet: Dora Read Goodale I chanced upon a rose the other day, A pale and faded flower, forgotten long. And with it these unfinished verses lay, The faltering echo of a deeper song: — A perfect day in June, — the golden sun Looks down upon the green and tangled way; The summer song and silence are as one, — The light and longing of a Summer's day! O untaught harmony of Summer days! The distant tinkle of a waterfall, The blue blue sky that deepens as you gaze. The wayward rose that blossoms by the wall! Unspoiled and sweet in every country lane, All dewy cool in maiden pink she blooms, Still green and fragrant thro' the Summer rain, When freer airs are thrilled with light perfumes. She blossoms close beside the dusty way. Her heart the careless passer-by may see, — Sweet is her fragrance thro' the burning day, But sweeter is her open secrecy! Though he who will may pierce her leafy green, Where sits the brooding robin on its nest, The secret of her life is all unseen. Unknown the impulse of her sweet unrest. All day the winds about her cool the air. Faint sounds the tinkle of the waterfall, — What is the sudden answer you may bear, O wayward rose, that blossoms by the wall? The Rose Poet: Sir Walter Scott "The rose is fairest when 'tis budding new, And hope is brightest when it dawns from fears; The rose is sweetest washed with morning dew, And love is loveliest when embalmed in tears. O wildling rose, whom fancy thus endears, I bid your blossoms in my bonnet wave, Emblem of hope and love through future years!" Thus spoke young Norman, heir of Armandave, What time the sun arose on Venachar's broad wave. A Lesson From The Rose Bush Poet: Howard Carleton Tripp Beside a limpid stream a rose bush grew; Its blossoms filled the air with rich perfume, Upon it fell the summer's sun and dew, The autumn gales swept roughly o'er its tomb. Such are the scenes of life, — in childhood's hours Hope comes to still the cares within the breast, And like the rose bush with its flagrant flowers Old age comes on and we are laid to rest. The rose bush can this lesson well unfold: Strive to excel in being good and wise. Oh, learn it, children, ere thy lives are old! Neath its foundation all thy glory lies. 'Tis The Last Rose Of Summer Poet: Thomas Moore 'Tis the last rose of summer. Left blooming alone; All her lovely companions Are faded and gone; No flower of her kindred. No rosebud, is nigh To reflect back her blushes, Or give sigh for sigh. I'll not leave thee, thou lone one! To pine on the stem; Since the lovely are sleeping, Go sleep thou with them. Thus kindly I scatter Thy leaves o'er the bed Where thy mates of the garden Lie scentless and dead. So soon may I follow, When friendships decay, And from love's shining circle The gems drop away. When true hearts lie withered. And fond ones are flown. Oh, who would inhabit This bleak world alone? Summer Poems Wild Rose Tree Poet: Richard Watson Gilder On the wild-rose tree Many buds there be; Yet each sunny hour Hath but one fair flower. Thou who wouldst be mine Open wide thine eyes In each sunny hour, Pluck the one perfect flower. Rose Quotes Leaf By Leaf Poet: Thomas B. Bishop Leaf by leaf the roses fall, Drop by drop the springs run dry, One by one beyond recall, Summer roses droop and die; But the roses bloom again, And the spring will gush anew, In the pleasant April rain, And the summer sun and dew. So, in hours of deepest gloom, When the springs of gladness fail, And the roses in their bloom, Droop like maidens wan and pale, We shall find some hope that lies, Like a silent germ apart, Hidden far from careless eyes, In the of the heart - Some sweet hope to gladness wed, That will spring afresh and new, When grief's winter shall have fled, Giving place to sun and dew; Some sweet hope that breathes of spring, Through the weary, weary time, Budding for its blossoming, In the spirit's silent clime. Poems About Leaves Roses and Pearls Poet: Paul Laurence Dunbar Your spoken words are roses fine and sweet, The songs you sing are perfect pearls of sound. How lavish nature is about your feet, To scatter flowers and jewels both around. Blushing the stream of petal beauty flows, Softly the white strings trickle down and shine. Oh! speak to me, my love, I crave a rose. Sing me a song, for I would pearls were mine.
