Everlasting Love
I keep this promise true
To cast off all others and to serve only you
From me to you, a symbol of unity
Woven of grasses and flowers
Created by the hands which hold the power
To capture every essence of your beauty
The happiness of love, immortal
In an enlacement of my feelings
I bring these flowers forth
And produce a message that is utterly appealing
Here's to you, a lover's gift
I begin with a bundle of violets
Symbols of faithfulness
To shield the heart from becoming adrift
Consider us alike, me and the mad Ophelia
Added here are lilies of the valley
Symbols of happiness
To calm the days we live so sadly
Added now, a crisp camelia
A symbol of beauty
To free the soul from ugliness
Added still, a bachelor's button
A symbol of hope
That lets us know our love still grows
And because there's only one I love
I add a single rose...
