My Symbols of Romance

Scent from lavender infused the air
As we strolled beneath the moon
Romance blossomed between eager hearts
Like a sentimental tune
Words of love were softly mumbled
Promises on moonlit beams
Heavenly feelings, falling in love
Filled us with drifts of dreams
The balminess of this bewitching herb
Put us almost in a trance
Lavender's delightful hue
It is my symbol of romance
                                                                               
Sweet music lilted on the evening breeze
When violins began to play
Couples danced closely, arms entwined
On this enchanted day
A melody entranced us as we swayed
It became our favourite song
Recorded deeply inside our souls
Memories forever strong
Waltzing together in perfect time
In harmony we danced
The silvery tones of music
It is my symbol of romance

Dew drops glisten on a new red rose
As sunbeams dance and shine
Wafts of perfume filled my senses
When you whispered you would be mine
Rosebud petals in superb array
Reveal splendid full-blown blooms
You wore a rosebud in your lapel
When you became my groom
A rose's delightful fragrance is found
In this flower, not by chance
The rose's enchantment is perceived by all
It is my symbol of romance
