Presenting your lover with 24 roses signifies that they are always on your mind, for each rose represents one hour of the day. 24 ROSES is a series of poems that explore the powerful and varied raw emotion that is love, in all its glory. From the innocent love of childhood sweethearts to the weathered relationships of those who grow old together, and the anger, infatuation, despair and romance in between. 'For unlike that red rose, Our hearts will wither, never Unlike those falling petals, We'll stay strong forever.'
