The Flowers of Life
There never seems to a place or time
For us to make amends
To understand each others feelings
Hopefully to end as special friends
The relationship we used to share
Reminds me of a rose
The beauty of watching it bloom
The sadness of the stems being froze
Each flowers has a different meaning
Whether its yellow, red, or white
The same with every romance
Is the rewards really worth the fight
If I was to buy you flowers
I'd choose several of its kind
You would have to know the meaning
To know what's on my mind
I would start with Pansies
Thinking of you, is the meaning they hold
Special thoughts and memories are the best
When in person they can't be told
Next, I would have to pick Tulips
Which power holds new love
For showing me a new side of life
I could never dream of
White carnations will lead a path
Full of friendship that will be sincere
So when you need someone to talk to
Remember I am always near
Somewhere there will be a single love rose
Which color is red and bold
Maybe it will be a sign that once again
Each other we will hold
There's always a time for Hops
The reason for them you have to guess
A perfect flower that says
I love you no less
Now we have the elegant orchid
It's beauty will lead the way To bring you a brighter tomorrow
And spread sunshine on today
There is a difference between the flowers and you
Which is very plain to see
When they are wilted and gone
The memories of you will still be with me
So, keep your eyes open for flowers
That might appear here and there
Maybe in time we will be together
But only God knows when and where
