Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Wait, no they're not,
(What the hell's wrong with you?)
#ValentinesDay
Roses are red,
Violets are violet,
Either is a better
love tale than twilit.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue
Lilies are white
Dandelions are yellow
Carnations are pink
Marigolds are orange
Delphiniums are kinda purpleish…
Where was I going with this again?
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Does gifting sex organs
Seem way weird to you?

#ValentinesDay
Roses are red,
Violets are blue
Or purple, or yellow,
Or combinations thereof...
There's a lot of options, really.
And that's not even taking into account the fact that we can't see into the ultraviolet.
I'm just saying, things are complicated.
I think we should see other people.
While Rhyming on Roses
Your verse can be antic
Or technically accurate
(And quite pedantic.)
Violets aren't blue.
Twitter Jumps: "Actually!"
Then silence again.
There was a red flower synonymous
And one colored anti-eponymous
They were metrically married, in verse that's oft varied,
By a person who remains anonymous.

#ValentinesDay
Roses are red
Violets are blue.
A kiss is not truth
But we wish it were true.
