Where are the red roses <br /> <br />Where is she <br /> <br />Where are the children playing <br /> <br />Waving by the roadside <br /> <br />The dog chasing a ball <br /> <br />Where are the flags <br /> <br />The carossel and laughter <br /> <br />Where is the young boy absorbed <br /> <br />By her tending to her red roses <br /> <br />One day I must grow red roses <br /> <br />I know they won't be the same. <br /> <br /> <br />From 'Colours of South Africa' 2013 <br /><br />Alex Fan Moniz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/red-roses-26/
