Roses

A rose for you
Today my love
Blooming brightest red.
It’s for the pain
I cause your heart
Broken but always caring.

A rose for you
Today my love
Blooming sunshine yellow.
It’s for the smile
You share each day
Brightening a darkened world.

A rose for you
Today my love
Blooming saddened black.
It’s for the lost
You miss each day
Tears shed for each one.

A rose for you
Today my love
Blooming creamy white.
It’s pure like you
Looks like you too
My love and only lover.

A rose for you
Today my love
Blooming many colors.
It’s for the woman
Who is many things
Sweetest wife, loving mother.
