ROSES are red, violets are blue - and an Evesham opticians is seeking the best love poem from you.

To celebrate Valentine's Day, Spacsavers, in Bridge Street, is running a search for Evesham's most romantic wordsmith.

The competition is open to all and the winning entry will receive a romantic Valentine's meal for two.

CT Wong, store director of Specsavers in Evesham, said: "Valentine’s Day is one of the most romantic days of the year, so we thought, what better way to celebrate than to ask people to send in their special poems for the ones they love."

The closing date for entries is Wednesday, February 12.

To enter, email your poem to eveshamspecsavers@gmail.com or visit the store.
