You gave me  green roses I had never

seen before when we first met at the

florist shop.

"The color of life, abundance, and

rejuvenation," you said, "a wonderful

celebration of good news and new

beginnings."

Your beauty and the purity of your

words enchanted me.

They sounded magical as they rolled

off your tongue.

I gave them to my sister as a present,

and it was a thoughtful gesture.
