Rose by Mikhail Vrubel
Rose of Purity
Rose of purity, fresh and white
Pink pastel pallor in the morning
Light of a pale day
You my love in your demure ways
Delicately taking of the day
In an exaltation of giving
Pure pink passion in white
O how exquisitely seductive
Your magical looks of innocence
In knowing the world and wanting
To love and be loved
A spiritual child of refreshing vitality
A lover of the flesh in mystical
Movements of an endless longing
Loving and giving
White pink rose of heightened desires
Passionate purity in your eyes
Your form perfect in its youthful vibrance
In calmness a princess of the stars
Ethereal in persuasion, earthly in needs
An earthy vision of sensuality
A rose of purity divinely given
