Just As Sweet
A single red Rose sits on the corner
of the yellow linen draped table
in the open air cobblestone courtyard.
Under the star filled moonlit midnight sky
romance sings as the piano plays.
In walks you
just as sweet as that single Rose
your smile outshining the lustrous moon
wearing that periwinkle blue dress
accenting those eyes like a vane gated Tulip
I take your hand and we dance
we dance close
to the beat of the music and the beat of our hearts
upon white pure petals of the margarita
saying only "love me"
a single red rose sits on the corner table
showing our love.....but
you are more than just a Rose
you are a red Camellia,
the flame to my heart
you are the Calla Lilly blowing in the wind
so majestic and pure
the cheerful Crocus and the beautiful Orchid
lighting up my simple little world
You're more than just a Rose
having only one certain trait
you're my bouquet of wildflowers
all put together, you are great
