The Crimson Rose

 

Where doth love fly?

With an angel in the sky.

 

Clocked in shinning armor,

She wears the helmet of her honor.

 

A crimson rose upon her breasts,

She is not like the rest.

 

In the field of love does she slay,

Each man in her very own way.

 

Crimson red is the field of love,

Men slain by a little dove.

 

As she pierces through their heart,

Upon their chests, she leaves her mark.

 

A crimson rose upon each breast,

Cupids arrow, she slays the rest.

 

And from their lips, they do cry,

Lifting their voices to the sky.

 

“Where doth my love fly?

With an angel in the sky.”
