Forty Roses
#BloomingFables

On the day we met
At your feet I lay
A single rose
It's petals red as blood
As it conveyed to you my heart
Something told me
ours would be a perfect fit
Sunrise and sunset
I lay at your door each day
A bouquet of seven roses
In hopes you would see
How deep a meaning they conveyed
Still you never seemed to know
But tonight in my arms I hold
Forty roses
The petals soft and delicate
it's scent enveloped me
A simple meaning to convey
