"They Yellow Rose You Gave Me"

"The Yellow Rose You Gave Me"

A yellow rose you gave to me. With a letter to tell me why. Tears ran down my cheek , as I read each loving line.

I give to you this yellow rose. It shows of beauty, as in your eyes. And the grandeur of its color brings sun light into my night.

But see the tiny fragile bud that lingers by the rose? It's only me beside you. You nourish and help me grow.

Each petal that it nurtures, represents the ones you cherish. Giving all your love within, and to all that you embellish.

The stem that makes it stand alone. Shows the strength you stow inside. And this strength that you have given me, has helped my fears subside.

The tiny little thorns it totes, shows the pain you can endure. But also warns of caution, for they flatter your demure.

The leafs that circle round the rose, supplies the air I breathe. And it's you, that takes my breath away. You are my loving sheathe.

So when you wake to morning light. And gaze upon this yellow rose. Remember How much I love you, And feel the love it shows...
