To Rosa----: Acrostic

Title:     To Rosa----: Acrostic
Author: Henry Timrod [More Titles by Timrod]

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.

[The end]
Henry Timrod's poem: To Rosa----: Acrostic
