The Colours of Love

Red for the passion you ignited in me.
Blue for the times I was not with you.
Green for the other loves that had been.
White for the dove on our wedding day.
Rose for the tint in my glasses.
Pink for our precious daughters.
Gold for the ring that still binds me to you.
Just so all the world can see.
How much you meant to me.
