| A single flow'r he sent me, since we met. All tenderly his messenger he chose; Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet - One perfect rose. I knew the language of the floweret; 'My fragile leaves,' it said, 'his heart enclose.' Love long has taken for his amulet One perfect rose. | ||
Why is it no one ever sent me yet
One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
Ah no, it's always just my luck to get
One perfect rose.

He hee, I got a rose - but it was unexpected so it was nice. Don't know where I'd park a limo anyway...

Lovely! Happy Valentine's day :) I've been painting more than writing, as of late. I will be posting pictures of my paintings as I finish them or get them photographed. Someday I hope to paint that perfect rose.
Beautiful roses, more than perfect! :-)
I got a beautiful pink rose today, at the electronics store. Sweet.
Happy Valentine's Day,
to you and yours,
