A POSIE OF LOVE

I'll give you a rose that is yellow,
For friendship strong and true
It will stand the test of time
And last eternity through.

I'll give you a rose that is pink,
For courage, gentle and kindly ways,
Its sweetness makes all worthwhile
And softly guides us all our days.

I'll give you a rose that is white,
For the true purity of our love,
May it last through our earthly days
And prepare us for heaven above.

I'll give you a rose that is red,
For my eternal love for you.
May we continue to share it now
And through eternity too.

Now put them together and bind them,
Add patience, forget-me-nots and sage,
And with this posey so very sweet,
We'll have true strength as we age.

With friendship, kindness, purity, love,
Tolerance, memories and wisdom sweet,
Tied with service, sacrifice and love,
We'll be ready to meet at our Saviours feet.
