The Virtuous White Rose

--**--The Virtuous White Rose--**-- White rose is holy Matrimony pureness of Bond between lovers. Blessing to Old Rome deceased’s Chastity and innocence. White Rose in myth and Legend was tainted by blood, Made blush from kiss, thus Made it red and made it pink Against its pride purity.

I like how you talked about the white rose tainted, made blush with a kiss. A good way to describe the sweet pink color.
