Thanks, I feel the multiple meanings were purposeful.

What a Rose Can Say
 
  A rose can say I love you
And want you to be mine,
a rose can say I thank you
For being so very kind,

A rose can say congratulations,
Whatever the occasion may be,
a rose can say I miss you
And wish you were here with me,

A rose can say I'm sorry
If I've hurt you in any way,
a rose can say get well soon,
May God bless you today?

A rose can say I wish you happiness,
And the best for you each day.
A rose can say farewell
When someone goes away,

A rose can say hello,
I'm thinking of you today,
there are just so many wonderful things
That a rose can say,

A rose can say goodbye
When a love one is laid to rest,
No matter what there is to say,
A rose can say it best.

Anthony Smith

Like the poem says, flowers have a lot of different meanings.

Posting this sure takes the edge off watching the end of "Capote"! Phew!





The Rose Family
 
  The rose is a rose,
And was always a rose.
But the theory now goes
That the apple's a rose,
And the pear is, and so's
The plum, I suppose.
The dear only knows
What will next prove a rose.
You, of course, are a rose -
But were always a rose.

Robert Frost

The rose, the rose,
presents a thorny problem,
for it touches the heart,
and often brings pain with pleasure,
tears with laughter,
wisdom with winsome wit.

And it seems not to care a bit,
or notice if he’s a jewel or a cur,
or that she is bold or demure,
just that they are one and not apart,
dodging life’s thorns on the stem,
if our shared mortal rose.
