Just A Rose

Love is a Rose in life’s garden,
Thriving in rain and in sun;
Sweet as memories, like petals,
Gently unfolding, one by one.

From the promise of early beginnings,
The tiniest seed at the start;
It grows to a bloom of great beauty,
With radiance and joy at its heart.

Its gifts of sweet fragrance and color
Are blessings that any may share.
Love is a rose in life’s garden,
And God, Himself, put it there.
