Roses, Roses and Roses
The rose knows not which way to go
What to see, where to see and how.
It knows not who to love, so loves all.
Scared of change, so changes soon.
To appreciate someone’s gratitude,
Dark Pink roses will go a long way.
To show admiration and sympathy,
Light Pink roses, the best to convey.
To promote the new relationship,
Orange roses will serve to captivate
If you succeed to attract that person,
Offer one red rose for love at first sight.
And if you think you have met the right one,
Offer two red roses to strengthen it.
Hey, Hey, go for the three red roses,
To cement for the everlasting love.
But remember lovely is the flower rose
Despite the thorns that prick just as life
That too have thorns that stick
But pick it up, get hurt but also gain.
