Roses Are Red

Roses are red


But all of them aren’t


Some are yellow


Some pink and white


Not to mention violet


Some roses are fairly large


Others, like buttons, are quite small


Most roses live in gardens


At least until they’re snipped


Then they might live in your house


But only for a while


Right?


Ah, roses are red


Red red red


I say it again


Some even have


A bed of their own


Do they sleep at night?


Who knows?


Unless you walk in your sleep


Which I hope you don’t


I like my roses a deep,


Dark red


And when I can’t find them,


I buy pansies instead.

Loved this...I have a few roses in my flower beds, and gardens..have one that actully changed this year. I had two roses of complete different colors planted fairly close together, one peach, the other deep red. This year when they bloomed the peach one is now colored an odd orange color...hmmm go figure, guess the bees have been busy! Enjoyed the write, food for thought!
Blessings,
