For the Love of Roses

Welcome to my Poetry and Painting Blog!

The current selected poem below is by George Elliot:

You love the roses - so do I. I wish 
The sky would rain down roses, as they rain 
From off the shaken bush. Why will it not? 
Then all the valley would be pink and white 
And soft to tread on. They would fall as light 
As feathers, smelling sweet; and it would be 
Like sleeping and like waking, all at once!
...................
Yes, I do love roses as well! 
I painted this to go with the above poem...
Large canvas this time: 30x30" in oil..."For the Love of Roses".
