"Rose Petals" Written by Sarazann Greenwood

My mother named me Rose
I have no petals, no leaves
I do have a cat, I pet all the time
He hangs on the window sill
Baiting squirrels from the eaves

When he gets tired he tends to leave

A name is a mission of great importance
To live up to it is hard, imagine Miss Hortense
I may not be a symbol of love 
I give no reason to stop and smell me
But I do have a cat, I pet all the time
He's my companion when I don't have a rhyme

My mother named me Rose and I do just fine
I named my cat Pussy McSnugglebug
I pet him all the time.
