Ten Roses

One by one they appear at my door

Each a rose

So much to adore

The first rose the signal of liking, I like you too

Your laughter and humor

So much to like about you

The second rose of longing, I long for you as well

I long for your warmth and touch

Wouldn't that be so swell

The third rose of inviting, I accept it with excitement

Your presence smelled of sage and peppermint

It was a scent I adored

The fourth rose of love, and you loved me well

The way we entwined

The feeling was amazing

The fifth rose was for proposal, I was happy to see

We both celebrated

It was all like a dream

The sixth rose was for family, we started all anew

Two girls and one boy

I'm proud to have them too

The seventh rose for our arguments and tears, they were painful to see

Though afterwards we made up

At those moments we were argue free

The eighth rose were for those mistakes, and we all make them

We accept them and grow

Nothing more to say

The ninth rose is growing old together, and I was happy to see

We stayed that strong for our children

For you and me

The tenth rose was of death, the most painful to experience

When you left me alone

When I fell apart in our home

Nine red roses, and one black of death

Strange however when an eleventh rose appeared, bright red (almost pink)

And that's when I noticed

The eleventh rose was our reunion, when we met each other again

We loved one another forever

Ever and ever for eternity
