We had so many wonderful entries for our January newsletter’s Summer Rose Giveaway, thank you all for taking the time to send us your beautiful roses.<\/p>\n

We all agreed, however, that the $250 Wakefield Press voucher should go to Ray Tyndale who sent in this lyrical, floral poem:<\/p>\n

\"Ray<\/p>\n

Maud<\/strong><\/h1>\n

scant apologies to Tennyson!<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Come my poppy<\/p>\n

Fling open your flaming petals<\/p>\n

Give to me your black heart.<\/p>\n

Come my pansy<\/p>\n

Toss back your knowing head<\/p>\n

Share with me your secret thoughts.<\/p>\n

Come my rose<\/p>\n

Fill the air with your pungency<\/p>\n

I will swim in your scented sea.<\/p>\n

Come into the garden<\/p>\n

My poppy, my pansy, my darling rose
\nEntwine with me.<\/p>\n

The sun shall succour your black heart<\/p>\n

The moon will keep your secret thoughts<\/p>\n

And I will drown.<\/p>\n
