She smiled the smile br that only flowers know br while dew drops fell br and petals opened br to frosty winds br of early Spring. br She knew of time br its mangled end br yet gave her heart br heart of a rose br with happiness br deep in her soul. br And death would not br defy its master br it came with measured br leaden steps br and smiled the smile br that means the end br when dew drops freeze br in frosty winds.
