Occasional Rose (HH 5036) Ernie Kinney

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER

Circle left
I can take the thorns
If there's just an occasional rose
Left allemande, come home a dosado
The men star left
Turn thru at home
Left allemande, swing and promenade
I can take the thorns
If there's just an occasional rose

FIGURE

1 & 3 (2 & 4) promenade halfway around
And then you square thru
Count 4 hands around
Dosado with the outside two,
Swing thru, boys run
Half tag, trade and roll
Pass thru, trade by and swing, promenade
And I'll accept a rose
And be patient till your love is mine

TAG

I can take the thorns
If there's just an occasional rose
