Three Roses

You hand to me… A rose A rose most red Behind you are… Two roses Both roses white Silently said… Two white roses Are each of us And the red rose Is our love I grab all three roses… A rose pierces my skin Blood spills… Representing Our dedication To one another This sentiment… I am touched By the love shown And by the piercing A love greater… Now that we’re together May our hearts Carry roses With dedication Thank you… For sharing your love Silent But caring love

very interesting one how you tied all the symbol of the roses together, Russell. I like that ending: silent but caring love.
