She Dreams of Roses

She Dreams of Roses

A Poem by Melinda McQueen



She Dreams of Roses


Sitting on the edge of the sea,

She dares to dream.

As far as her eyes can see,

And further does her faith believes.

 

Though water is all around
And she feels as though she’ll drown,

Her heart secretly poses;

She dreams of roses.

 

Closing her eyes to the roaring waves,

Insisting on seeing through faith,

She calls forth her desires,

As her heart catches fire.

 

Looking with her heart, instead of her eyes,

She feels her hopes rise.

Looking beyond her limited shore,

She dreams of roses once more.

 

She sees the garden in her heart

Springing to life from the dark.

Hoping it is meant to be,

Its truth she longs to see.

 

A rose of faith.

A rose of grace.

A rose love.

A rose of enough.

 

Sitting on the edge of her seat,

For her chair is her sea,

Her heart openly poses;

She dreams of roses.
