The Lovers’ Rose

 

The sweetest flower that blows

I give you as we part.

For you it is a rose,

For me it is my heart.

 

By Frederick Peterson (1859-1938)

 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

 

Until next time. Stop and smell the roses.

 

Rosalinda

    What lovely thoughts for today. This would have been my son’s 47th birthday and although the poem is for lovers, it applies to me as well.
