Roses are Red, Violets are Blue

Who else think the roses are red violets are blue poem is extremely smart?

I think it's such an ironic poem. The poet obviously took flowers, such as roses, and violets, and specifically named their colours despite what their name suggests. Since it is a love poem I think the traditional "sugar is sweet and so are you." suggests that the person being written about sounds tough but is really just a sweetheart. Violets- should be purple, Roses- should be pink. Who here agrees with me? Ok Max there's no need to get offensive. I just asked a question.
