Weeping Rose

I would rather have a rose from a garden of a friend
Than to have the choicest flowers when my stay on earth must end.
I would rather have one single word of kindness said to me
Than flattery around my grave when life has ceased to be.

So bring to me one flower, be it pink or white or red
For I’d rather have one bloom today than a truckload when I’m dead.
