Why Do We Think This Way?

Roses are red

Violets are blue

Why does everyone say this

I don’t know. Do you?

People have been writing this

From way back when

Writing with paper and pen

And nothing but things about men

It is odd how people think this way

Writing of lovers, animals, and food per say

But once a year everyone is filled with cheer

Not the 25th which is full of disappointment

But the 14th, this is absolutely clear

We write of what comes to our head

Take this poem, I could’ve written it about the dead

Just like our lives, everything comes to an end

But like Dr. Seuss said “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened”
