A traditional Valentine's poem


roses are white
violets too
watch where you step
floor's covered in goo

their roses are like dinner plates
30-some feet across
you can't eat off them
unless you like rose petals or bugs
watch out
some of those petals bite back
not like plates at all, really

what's in a name? Letters, for one.

Lady Banks yields
to the seven sisters
yellow petals
