A White Rose. The red roses whisper of passion,

And the white rose breathes of love; Oh, the red rose is a falcon,

And the white rose is a dove.

But 1 send you a cream-white rosebud With a flush on its petal tips; For the love that is purest and sweetest Has a kiss of desire on the lips. —John Boyle O' Reilly.
