Soft petals of a rose.
Given to only those,
That we love, chosen,
To show we really care.
Soft fragance fills the air.
One becomes caught,
With love in their thoughts,
A special place in their hearts.
Roses come in many colors,
Each hue with a meaning of it's own.
But once recieved the roses color,
Is surpassed by thoughts of our own.
Roses for friendship, roses for love,
Roses say someones sorry,
Roses say someone cares,
Roses are special no matter when or where.
Even after the softness is gone
Many years go by, we may find
A bud pressed deeply in our Bible
That stirs a memory, or even a smile.
