A Lily in the Roses  once there was a lily in the roses,  two kinds of beauty in this public place!   bright yellow  in the morning,  sunshine in her  golden saxon hair.  ignorance so  shocking,    he seemed so  at fault,  and never found absolution ever in his eyes   and then the lily whose colour in the photograph  in undeveloped and unseeable  because the flower isn't opened yet.   and for us, the future  can't be seen.
