ROSES IN HEAVEN If roses grow in heaven, Lord, Then I beseech of Thee: Please place a bunch in Mama's arms, And tell her they’re from me. Assure her that I love her still And miss her funny smile. Bestow a kiss upon her cheek, And hold her for a while. December tenth, so long ago, She bore me forth that day. With breath from her, I offer now This spiritual bouquet. (12 lines -- alternate lines of Iambic Tetrameter and Trimeter )
