Garnets and Carnations

cut
right and
radiant
deep love and Warmth.
Garnets of red are January’s friend.
 The sweet smell of red carnations drift in the air 
Admiration
is what my 
flower 
Means.

Great idea for a tectracys poem, Cory. In the sixth line, there are eleven syllables which is one too many. Just a suggestion: how about replacing "Surrounded by" with "We have those"? Everything else looks fine.
