Roses represent what we call love
They are great gifts from God above
Petals that blossom throughout the day
They touch our hearts in many ways
A scent so special it is their own
For love and friendship they are grown
Awake each morning as a new day comes
Show their beauty and reach for the sun
Many colors of Roses that we can see
Each one special, each one unique
Grow new each year to give away
To place a smile on someone's face
Roses represent what we call love
They are great gifts from God above
Petals that blossom throughout the day
They touch our hearts in many ways
I give to you a rose today

A friend asked that I write a poem about roses and this is what I came up with. Always hard writing for someone else because instead of using your feelings on a subject you are trying to figure out how you think they feel.
