Roses are red, Violets are blue. Write an ode to your dog—we’ve got prizes for you!
We know you love your dog, and what better way to express that love than in verse? Enter The Bark’s Puppy Love Poetry Contest on Facebook. Finish the classic doggerel, “Roses are red, Violets are blue,” with a few lines about your canine Valentine as a comment on our wall.

Roses have ouchies
Violets taste good
To Karma, my baby girl
Flowers are food.
Roses will always be red,
Violets will always be blue,
But I'll be blind to all their beauty,
On the day that I lose you.
-Only God can know how much you have meant to me for sixteen years, Charlie, my dearest golden boy
My roses are red,
My violets are blue
My three dogs mean everything,
I say MERCI BEAUCOUP!!
Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
You Save My Life Everyday
So Everyday I Pray...
Roses are red red,
Violets are blue blue
My Charlie and Buddy and Bella
Are all three my little boo-boo's
Roses are red
Violets are blue
They come with wet noses
and give kisses too :)
Roses are red
Violets are blue
You become a rescue Mom
when your dogs resuce you. :)
Roses are red
Violets are blue
You can fetch and play dead
Wish you could pick up your poo!
Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
All you ask is a warm bed
And some slippers to chew.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I need more than four lines
For your billet-doux
Roses are red
Violets are blue-ish
My doggie eats pork
So I guess she's not Jewish
Roses are red
Lilies are white
Maggie 'n' me
Always in sight
Roses are red
violets are blue
BLIZZARD is awesome
and mommy loves you!
Roses are red, violets are blue,
You bring happiness to life,
I SO LOVE YOU!! <3
Violets are blue
Roses are red
Maggie's my girl
When all's done and said!
Roses are red
Violets are blue
When I have no Airedale
I think life is through !
Roses are red, violets are blue,
you've brought greater meaning
to "Who rescued who?" <3
Love my Maddie-girl!!!! :)
Roses are red, violets are blue,
