You seem to be in a rather reflective mood recently, Larry, if you don't mind me saying. I hope that I will able to reflect in such a positive way one day, too.
As to the content, roses grow, relationships grow, and so, after years together, a single bloom is no longer enough - get her the whole God damn bush!

If I drank coffee, I would be choking on it now! However, I agree entirely.

A great wisdom gained from this. Love really should grow or help both persons to grow as years go by.

I love this Larry!!!

This is very honest and somewhat humourous Larry, reading your comment to Ben did bring a smile and I'm glad it's nominated

Well said Larry. Love all the comments :) At first read it does seem numerous but then romantic logic kicks in

hahah...oh Sir L you do have a way to hit us with a
message and a laugh!

JUDGES COMMENT: Larry seems to be the 'godfather' of the site and by goodness does he live upto his name. He tries many forms and I personally think this is my favourite form by Larry because even though there's only 3 lines and 17 syllables he uses it to the best of his ability, this I must say raised a smile of which I needed and I believe many of us would have smiled when reading this.
