The Roses By Alan L. Strang

            I have roses in my garden,
            And their fragrance fills the air.
            How I love to watch them blooming;
            For they all are very fair.

            Some have deep red velvet petals,
            Some again are snowy white;
            And the little baby pink ones,
            Surely give you such delight.

            Pretty birds come to my garden,
            And sing there the live-long day;
            Yes the birds and pretty flowers
            Help and cheer us on our way.
