A Rose
The fragrance of a rose
Drifting through the fresh air
Brings delight to my nose
The fragrance of a rose
Even when my eyes close
It's beauty everywhere
The fragrance of a rose
Drifting through the fresh air
As the weather turns warmer
Lovely flowers here and there
The days are growing longer
As the weather turns warmer
Eyes behold vibrant colors
We cannot help but stare
As the weather turns warmer
Lovely flowers here and there
Little hummingbird
Flapping with your wings
Your buzzing is heard
Little hummingbird
Never saying a word
You pull my heart strings
Little hummingbird
Flapping with your wings
