King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

What Do Roses Mean?

A woman and her husband have a really bad fight. He went off to work the next day without talking to her, but she doesn't care. She's busy doing her thing around the house.

All of the sudden, around 1:00 in the afternoon, the doorbell rings. She went to the door and opens it and there is a young delivery guy from the local florist shop with an enormous, beautiful bouquet of long-stemmed red roses, the expensive ones, from her husband.

She says to the delivery guy with disgust, "Oh What CRAP!"

The delivery guy says, "What's the matter lady? You don't like roses?"

She replies, "Yeah, I like roses, but do you know what this means?"

He says, "No, Lady, what does this mean?"

She answers, "It means for the next two weeks I'll be laying on my back with my legs in the air."

He replies, "Gee, Lady, don't you have a vase?"
