Red Rose for Robyn
By Ken

I bought a single rose today

it seemed as though I should.

So I gazed upon the basket full

and contemplated good.

First I held a pink rose

and studied it real well.

While holding it up to my nose

it was lacking any smell.

Then I chose a yellow beauty

the most lovely of the lot.

A heavenly scent was oh so sweet,

yet not the one I bought.

A deep red one caught my eye,

dark leaves embraced it's stem.

It didn't stand out in the crowd;

so modest to the rest of them.

So I chose the one with quiet grace;

not flashy quite demure.

I know I made the best choice now,

of this I'm truly sure.

It's blossoming more lovely

than I thought a rose could do.

Robyn, I didn't choose this rose for me.

I bought this rose for you.
