My love is like a red, red rose

Out for a Valentines dinner tonight and was given a rose. I don’t care if it’s corny and commercial! It’s good to be reminded to tell your significant other that they are significant. And the dessert wine was a huge measure so I’ve come over all poetic!

A Red, Red Rose BY ROBERT BURNS

O my love is like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my love is like the melody
That’s sweetly played in tune.

So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I;
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only love!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my love,
Though it were ten thousand mile.
