To You, My love

If a rose could smell
any sweeter than your name
I will take it in.

If any tulip
could be as handsome as you
I will take it in.

If any sunflower
could shine as bright as you do
I will take it in.

But alas, my love,
You are sweeter than a rose,
you are more handsome 

than any tulip
I have ever laid eyes on, 
And you shine brighter 

Than any sunflow'r
that has looked toward the sun 
in all its glory.

Lovely - I like the comparison of your love with the flowers and the symmetry that you've built in to the poem.
Well done. Sweet and simple.
