Roses Blushing Red and White

Roses blushing red and white,
    For delight;
Honeysuckle wreaths above,
    For love;
Dim sweet-scented heliotrope,
    For hope;
Shining lilies tall and straight,
    For royal state;
Dusky pansies, let them be
    For memory;
With violets of fragrant breath,
    For death.
