Red Rose



Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My plant is pretty,
And so are you.

Orchids are white,
Ghost ones are rare,
Trout are brown,
And so is your hair.

Magnolia grows,
With buds like eggs,
Slices are thin,
And so are your legs.

Sunflowers reach,
Up to the skies,
Flowers are blue,
And so are your eyes.

Foxgloves in hedges,
Surround the farms,
A bath is warm,
And so are your arms.

Daisies are pretty,
Daffies have style,
My way is friendly,
And so is your smile.

A red rose is beautiful,
Just like you.
