In such a company?-

And one nightingale for twenty?"

By that south window of the little house,

On all my birthdays, for me.

too rough, too rough,
For roses to stay after.

Upon the wharves of sorrow, and heard ring
The bell that calls us on; the sweet far thing.

- Quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
A relationship is like a rose,
How long it lasts, no one knows.
Love can erase an awful past,
love can be yours, you'll see at last.

To have it leave, you'd rather die.
You hope you've found that special rose,
'cause you love and care for the one you chose.

And loathsome canker lies in sweetest bud.
All men make faults.

He will come five times that day, in case you have gone out.
But after his last visit, he will know without a doubt,
To take the roses to the place, where I've instructed him,
And place the roses where we are, together once again.
A profusion of pink roses bending ragged in the
rain speaks to me of all gentleness and its enduring.

The first note says For the woman I love
and the second, For my best friend.
And I will make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies.
