The Web Poetry Corner - Wesley A. Storer - The Roses of Versailles
The Roses of Versailles
by
Wesley A. Storer
ONCE A LAND FOR FLEURS DE LIS
LE ROSAIRE CHERI ET LA MUGUET
EXOTIC COLORED PASTELS MIXING
STRIPED AWNINGS AND UMBRELLAS
CONCERTINAS AND GYPSY DANCERS
PARIS COLORS ARE BLUE AND RED
AND FRAGRANT LINED LEAFY LANE
FLEURS OF ALL DESCRIPTIVE HUE
TRANSCENDING FRAGRANCES ASKEW
HERE LIVED LOVE AMIDST CHARMS
OF LOVE'S SPLENDID ASCENDANCE
WHERE UNDER HONEY COLORED SUN
OF DRIFTING CLOUDS DESCENDING
FABLED IN LOFTY WIT AND PROSE
WISDOM GUIDED LOVE DID REPOSE
HER LOVE OF SENSITIVE PASSION
EVEN HER FOOL HAD SOLID SENSE
ONCE THERE WAS NO LOCKED DOOR
WHERE ONCE WAS BUT IS NO MORE
JESU'S LIGHT A BRIGHT DELIGHT
GONE NOW QUAINT ELEGANT CHARM
HER INNOCENT BOUNDLESS CHARMS
I BOUGHT HER LA ROSE ROUGE IN
LE GARDEN VERSAILLES OF SIGHS
SHE GAVE MOI A BURGUNDY BERET
HOW VERSAILLES GAVE HER SIGHS
SOME OLD LADY SAID I WAS NUTS
BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT SEE YOU
HA HA HA CEST LA VIE HA HA HA
I AM SICK OF THIS TIRED WORLD
ONLY THEE FAIR FLOWER OF LOVE
