blue roses show my love

i give as a token

but look deeper inside

true its your favorite color

but its the one i hold

its the color of the rain

its the color of the sky

its the color of my heart

its the color that i cry

so i give you 3 blue roses

one for my love

one for my sorrow

and one just to give

I agree. Very good poem. And red is getting over-used in rose poems i think. I like blue :)

I love the flow of this poem and the way you've made blue a colour of love rather than the usual red ( :
