American Beauty (Hybrid)

American Beauty (Hybrid)

I pick some rose flowers in our garden

To place in our mantle every now and then

Sometimes, I share them to a sightless woman neighbor

She said, red is her favorite color

My eye caught on one purplish-red rose

Big, silky and velvety

Its name, American Beauty.

I give them rose food every other week

They, too, are like pets

I shower them with tender loving care

So they continue to bear more flowers

American Beauty is great to share,

With people you really care.

American Beauty,

You are truly a Godsent.
