Of Roses
OF ROSES
Why has the rose bears thorns?
Roses are in red when in bloom
Lovely and temptatious bees zing and swarm around to zip
Its nectar so sweet.
You are the most sought after
Among roses and flowers
Red represents love’s fullness
White is pureness of intentions
When prick by the thorns
It bears pains or death.
Red, white, yellow or blue roses
Signify the three lettered words
“I love you!”
A manifestation of great love
Now, if 5 or more bunch of roses meant
I love you with all my heart!
However, when roses are withered
Is likened a perfidious woman
Cannot be trusted, beauty and sweetness lost and faded
A distraught and forsaken love
Much unrequitted and bewildered lover
Love is sacrificed and double-crossed!
