To Rosa ----: Acrostic Poem by Henry Timrod

To Rosa ----: Acrostic

Rating: 2.9


I took a Rosebud from a certain bower,
And by its side placed an Orange flower,
Then with the Speedwell, blended the perfume
And the sweet beauty of an Apple-bloom,
And thus, 't is one of the loveliest feats,
Is spelled a gentle lady's name in sweets.
