Flowers and Riches
A rose for a hug and a violet for a kiss.
No truer love exists more pure than this.
Penny for your thoughts, a dollar for a date
Priceless is a lifetime intertwining our fate.
Carnations for the children we will one day have
Tulips for the years, measuring anniversaries past
Nickel for your feelings, a five for your touch
But no piece of silver can ever be enough
Daisies for the happy years, zinnias for the riches
Two people like us were not made for lives in ditches.
A dime to help us up, a ten to get us out,
A President and Secretary can't tell what we're about
Black roses for the day that we die together
Wreaths of blossoms encircling our stones forever.
A quarter for no tears, A twenty for open hearts
Twenty twenty-five says we'll have never been apart
