A Rose For Your Lady

Buy me a pink rose, when I am sad
Buy me a yellow rose, when I am mad
When I am joyful, buy me any rose!
When I am inlove, buy me an evergreen rose
And a red rose too!

If today I can't stand you, buy me a white rose.
Buy me a black rose to remind me that I was nasty yesterday
And if I ever make you feel like you are not enough, buy me a bouquet

Buy me a mixed bouquet, of bright, of dull, of dark, of fragile flowers. Each to represent the lady you wake next to each day

A new day, a new rose for a your lady.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
