A pretty song for rose lovers to say farewell to summer, with nice pictures, and for all at Amy's Place whose graphics, humor and presentations I enjoy so much... also, there are vocal versions in the youtube sidebar:

Tis the Last Rose of Summer

Lyrics and music by Thomas Moore

'Tis the last rose of summer,
Left blooming alone.
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone.
No flowr of her kindred,
No rosebud is nigh,
To reflect back her blushes
Or give sigh for sigh.

I'll not leave thee thou lone one
To pine on the stem,
Since the lovely are sleeping
Go sleep thou with them;
Thus kindly I scatter
Thy leaves oer the bed,
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead.

So soon may I follow
When friendships decay,
And from loves shining circle
The gems drop away!
When true hearts lie withered
And fond ones are flown
Oh! who would inhabit
This bleak world alone?

(((Dita!))) :)
Such beautiful music and photos! Makes me a bit sad summer is over but then again, that’s what makes spring so special. :) Fall is nice too. I’m trying to Id roses while I watch. There are many, I cannot. ;)
Thanks so much!
