A Bouqet of Pink Carnations (Tribute to candii bouquet)



I can't help but imagine your aphrodisiac-like aroma you emit
I admire you for acknowleging me, my love you permit
God Bless your heart, as well as your soul
These words shant ever part, they'll be bound whole
For my words aren't lies, I say what I mean and mean what I say
My philosophical approach has seemed to impressed you in a way

I now say welcome.
Welcome to my classroom. I am surely the professor
Here to give you more than enough, nothing lesser
I apply my heart and wisdom through pleasurable pressure

You can only imagine the lesson I have in store for you
If we ever should mix your pink would mesh with my blue
And create a beautiful unique color or hue

This is more than a love letter
A poem of appreciation, but better
For now I'll keep your image forever in reverie
I hope you'll keep me in your memory, always remember me

XOXO
Sincerely, Professor Frost/William
