Wiley's Song
Wiley’s Song
The red rose whispers of passion
And the white rose breathes of love
Oh, the red rose is a falcon
And the white rose is a dove
But I send you a cream white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips
Chorus: Ahhh, ahh ahh ahh, ahhhhh, ahhh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhh
Two roses embracing each other
Souls dancing together above
In a box that she kept in her closet
were the words that he wrote of his love
he wrote of a blossoming rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips
his love was the purest and sweetest
With a kiss of desire on his lips
(chorus)

Oh, the red rose is a falcon

But I send you a cream white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips
Chorus: Ahhh, ahh ahh ahh, ahhhhh, ahhh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhhhhh
Ahhhhhh
Two roses embracing each other
Souls dancing together above
In a box that she kept in her closet
were the words that he wrote of his love

With a flush on its petal tips
his love was the purest and sweetest
With a kiss of desire on his lips

Wiley would grow up to serve honorably and bravely in several wars as an USMC Officer and Test Pilot. He flew choppers and supersonic jets. He pulled many a wounded warrior from the battlefield.
Maureen was one of Wiley's 5 daughters. She's pictured here perhaps about the time he was killed on a test mission.
My wife Maureen after she grew up and still showed a strong resemblance to Wiley.
Wiley and Dulcie. The words to this song were found in her closet after she passed.
