Rose Queen (Mirror Sestet)

by Sylvia   Nov 12, 2008


Roses, the queen of all beautiful posies.
Posies, God's wonderful creations, include roses.
Khloris, Greek Goddess of Flowers, friend of florists.
Florists, the arrangers of the goddess of flowers, Khloris.
Flowers of beauty grow with power,
power that God gave the queen of flowers.
