A Single Sweet Red Rose

I saw you first ten days ago

   All in gusto and bloom 

You smiled and gently

   Swayed in welcome 

Since then we have had a date 

   Old me with faltering limbs 

And you young and teasing 

   "Come, feel and kiss me" 

 I will be gone soon but will come again 

   Will you await me with the same smile?
