A poem that I wrote on the card of the flowers I gave to my girl last Valentine's day. The flowers were blue Iris and red Tulip, thus the title!

I got you these flowers,

To show you the meaning,

Raw emotional power,

Has me careening.

I'm so lost in you,

I don't want to get out.

To show you I'm true,

And my heart is devout,

I got you blue iris,

The flora of faith.

I don't want to hide this,

It just feels too great.

And red Tulips too,

So you can believe,

What I say is the truth,

You're perfect for me.

I love the way you talk,

Your sideways smile I adore.

I love the way you walk,

And always end up wanting more.

I love the way you are,

So true and bold.

You are my perfect star,

One I always want to hold.

You are a shining light,

In my dark and lonely world.

So fantastic and bright,

My stomach's a-whirl.

I hope that you smiled,

And thought fondly of me.

See you in a while,

My beautiful Shelly!
