A rose without thorns, Not a petal was torn, A perfect rose stood straight and tall, My Mother was the most precious of all. A rose that survived the worst kind of weather And yet, the most delicate ever. A rose with a fragrance, There could be no other, You see this rose is My Mother. A rose is picked and put up to dry, The beauty is still there, It never dies. 5
