BEAUTIFUL ROSES

A bunch of beautiful roses for our forty forth anniversary,
So fragrant and graceful, tall and tender as can be,
With babies breath and lovely ferns of bright green,
And in them a special loving message could be seen.

Oh yes, roses of the deepest red that tell of a love everlasting,
A love that has passed the test of time that makes each heart sing,
A love that makes the home a wonderful place to want to be,
A love that wants all the children to be an eternal family.

Then to add to red, yellow roses for a friendship that has no end,
They tell of a bond between us, on which we can both depend,
Tells that we are best friends, and enjoy each others company,
Like the same things and do them together and are so very happy.

Then roses of the fairest white, tells all of a love that’s pure,
A love we hope will be worthy to enter through heaven’s door,
A love clothed in forgiveness, a love that is hard to explain,
Love developed through sacrifice, and believing on God’s name.

So looking at the combined roses arranged with tender care,
Tells of a love that will not fade or weaken, will always be there.
For love, friendship and purity, prepares us for heaven above,
One day, like those flowers, we can express our perfect love.
