A fragrant rose


A fragrant rose as delicate as your lips,
I send to you in return for a kiss.
In spring a rich tranquil valley lies,
Would not compare to your beauty in my eyes.
I put all my love, hopes, my dreams in your care,
And pray that one day our lives we will share.
I dream of walking with you on the beach,
I stretch out my arm to touch your face in a reach.
I look into your eyes, you look into mine,
We kiss and embrace for the very first time.
I'll never let go or ever leave you to miss,
I seal this promise with a delicate kiss.
We hold each other from now throughout time.
I feel warm in your arms, as you do in mine.
