Ribbons and wrappings,
Bags and bows;
Open, deep inside-
A single rose.
Shock and surprise
And time froze;
All is caused by
A single rose.
Small and simple,
A standing pose
Against the easel-
A single rose.
Thick and thin,
Smiles and woes;
Everything's brighter
With a single rose.
Hugs and kisses;
Anything goes
Throughout love-
With a single rose.
Meters and miles
I'd travel, who knows?
Just for this-
A single rose.
