First Line: "'twas only a tiny, withered rose"
Last Line: But it once belonged to grace
Subject(s): Grace
'TWAS only a tiny, withered rose,
But it once belonged to Grace.
The goody didn't know that, I suppose --
'Twas only a tiny, withered rose,
No longer sweet to the eye or nose,
So she tossed it out from the Dresden vase. --
'Twas only a tiny, withered rose,
But it once belonged to Grace.
