I dreamt the Roses one time went <br />To meet and sit in Parliament; <br />The place for these, and for the rest <br />Of flowers, was thy spotless breast. <br />Over the which a state was drawn <br />Of tiffany, or cob-web lawn; <br />Then in that Parly all those powers <br />Voted the Rose the Queen of flowers; <br />But so, as that herself should be <br />The Maid of Honour unto thee.<br /><br />Robert Herrick<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-parliament-of-roses-to-julia/
