The Love of Roses
Perfect purple petals adorn this stunning rose
Sweetly smelling scent drifts gently to my nose
Nestling in my bouquet is this stunning flower
Sheer perfection, I stare at it hour on hour
The rose can hide a secret, a nasty pointed thorn
It can hurt you deeply of this I must you warn
The path of true love doesn’t always run smooth
With patience and love these issues you’ll soothe
A stunning red rose is a symbol of true love
Their velvety petals sent from heaven above
Be sure of your love when he does propose
Cherish your love like this delicate rose
