William Butler Yeats - The Rose TreeWilliam Butler Yeats - The Rose Tree
Work rating: Low


`O WORDS are lightly spoken,` Said Pearse to Connolly, `Maybe a breath of politic words Has withered our Rose Tree; Or maybe but a wind that blows Across the bitter sea.` "It needs to be but watered,` James Connolly replied, "To make the green come out again And spread on every side, And shake the blossom from the bud To be the garden`s pride.` "But where can we draw water,` Said Pearse to Connolly, "When all the wells are parched away? O plain as plain can be There`s nothing but our own red blood Can make a right Rose Tree.`
