Blue Rose

I'm a blue rose, who
longs for you to hug
and embrace me, and
hold me tight.
A distinctive rose, who
adds fragrance to your
life, and is pleasing to
your sight.
A rose cherished, in
the day, and in the night.
A beautiful rose, who is
loved by you now, and
in a future bright.
A rose, whose radiance
increases, in a man-kissed
light.
