My Pretty Rose Tree

Title:     My Pretty Rose Tree
Author: William Blake [More Titles by Blake]

A flower was offered to me,
Such a flower as May never bore;
But I said "I've a pretty rose tree,"
And I passed the sweet flower o'er.

Then I went to my pretty rose tree,
To tend her by day and by night;
But my rose turned away with jealousy,
And her thorns were my only delight.

-THE END-
William Blake's poem: My Pretty Rose Tree
