The Rose

I found myself,
In a meadow,
Where wild flowers grew,
Beyond what the eye could see.

I walk through the meadow,
Wishing that you were here with me.
I found Lilies to Daisies,
But no flower for you.

In the middle of the meadow,
Of all the flowers.
I saw it,
The most incredible rose for you.

The rose’s petals had four different colors.
And I knew your heart would melt.
The first petal was red,
The bright and deep passion our love has.

The second petal was pink,
You are beautiful and filled with grace.
The next petal was yellow,
For friendship & companionship that you bring.

The last petal was white,
For you are true, & faithful.
For these things that I name,
That is why I gave you my heart.

You are the Keeper of My Heart.

  • I like this poem. It has a sweet twist to it. You emphasize the unique greaduer of a rose and set it apart from all the rest. I like where you say "I found Lilies to Daisies,But no flower for you." It makes the person you found the rose for sound really special. Great job!

    Heys, thank you for your comment. I love the sections of your poem, how you've used colours to show the nature of someone, and the brushing by of lilies, to make the rose stand out and be special. A very heartfelt write.
