Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue contains a collection of over 200 short verses; some are romantic while others are funny, or just plain silly. Roses are red Violets are blue Around a ballroom I'd love to twirl Yes, I'm just an old-fashioned girl How sad that you have two left feet Perhaps a better suitor I might meet What's that? What's that? Is that just bling? Or is it perhaps a genuine diamond ring? Dancing is for chumps All those lifts and bumps I've had a change of heart How soon can we start? Roses are red Violets are blue I once dated a man from Zurich Things were going as well as could be We were perfectly happy, me and he Until he let one rip It was absolutely sulphuric!
