Okay its romantic but overly so, I mean if your trying to woo the most poetic of mates then this may help but otherwise its just too sweet.

I hate to say it but this quote is somewhat cliched and cheesy.  It is somewhat romantic and would probably be viewed as sweet and super-romantic if given to your girlfriend but from a writer’s point of view its just too much.

Keep writing though, its good to see that your being creative!

I missed the first version of this. I’m worried what it was like, considering. I understand the intent of this, but for it to have a chance as a “quote,” it has to flow clearly and be swift. I think this gets caught up in itself, but it could easily be reworked to climb to its tier.

Maybe something like this:

“My love for you rests in each petal of an endless flower bed.”

I loved this quote. It makes sense, and in my opinion this is far better, than the original, it sounds a lot smoother. ‘Pluck’ could do with some work, I suggest you maybe consider a different word, its not very easy on the tongue, but everything else flows wonderfully.

Well done.

As a metaphor, the flower bed doesn’t work for me. It is by nature demarcated. You want a more immediate, clearer image of limitlessness. That said, I’d love to be your partner.

This is a sweet sentiment, and I’ve never heard endless love described quite this way.  Thanks for sharing!

If it’s an endless bed, then it’s no scarce resource so not very complimentary anyway. I’m not wild about it as the whole flowers=love thing is a cliche on steroids. sorry!
