The one white rose

Language: English

A sorrowful woman said to me, 
"Come in and look on our child." 
I saw an Angel at shut of day, 
And it never spoke but smiled. 

I think of it in the city's streets, 
I dream of it when I rest 
The violet eyes, the waxen hands, 
And the one white rose on the breast!
