roses, they are so charming and sweet
taking the place of those who cannot meet
a stem or two, so symbolic of romance
lighting a candle, and asking thee to dance

roses, the coloring so strong and cast
a meaningful rememberance of the past
bring joy and warmth to a quiet home
like designs of shape around a dome

roses live in a special place in our heart
a memory of yesteryear we shall not part
the delightful scent we all remember well
some significance of touch we cannot sell
