Roses for my love

Roses symbolize such passion

these precious gifts we hold so dear

a token of my affection

makes me want to keep you so near

over time it begins to open

this rose comes into it`s glory

releasing such luscious sweet scent

infusing us in our story

securely protected by sharp thorns

these flowers are as safe as you

I would defend you to the end

to be happy our whole life through

even after this rose has gone

it`s image is there in the heart

to remind us of our true love

so that we`ll never be apart

these roses are given as a token

with petrals so bright and luscious

symbolizing the love between us

for to me, you are so precious
