Kaity Larkin - A Simple Red Rose

A simple red rose.
So soft to the touch,
Is a perfect expression?
Of just how much...

I Love You.

A simple red rose,
So fragrant and supple,
Brushed on you gently,
Caresses shared by a couple.

Whether given fresh cut,
Or dried pressed with dreams...
A rose should be treasured,
And cherished, it seems.

A simple red rose,
When given away,
Is a whispered reminder?
Of words I long to say...
