The Rose

Each day with grace each petal so tenderly unfolds as the light of dawn slowly awakens the face of the sleeping rose. Toward the sky it reaches it's peak with color as sweet as a child's cheeks. So repetitive it's story of God's gracious love, each time it resurrects a new leaf or rosebud. A promise is proven to all of mankind as each rose is picked from it's ever bearing bush or vine. The rose forever gives back to us what is promised so, ever lasting life and love as it knowingly reaches for Heaven's blessings from above.
