PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

To show you how much our love grows,

I’m sending you a single rose.

~

But does that say that I love you?

Maybe I should send you two.

~

With all that you have given me.

I might as well just send you three.

~

You’re all that I am living for,

so maybe I will give you four.

~

Since you’re the reason I’m alive,

you really should be getting five.

~

You and I make the perfect mix.

So I’ve decided to send you six.

~

You’re God’s gift sent from Heaven,

number of roses now equals seven.

~

Are we together because of fate?

Hey, why not, I’ll send you eight.

~

To show you that you’re really mine,

I’m sending you roses, nine.

~

But as I think it over again,

maybe I should send you ten.

~

Okay no, I’m back to seven,

or maybe not, how about eleven?

~

One more to add to your shelves.

Now the total equals twelve.

~

I could pick roses till the smell makes me sick,

but for you my dear, there aren’t enough roses to pick.
