A True Rose of Jericho

I come whence I go the Lord alone knows like this wheel in the sky this a true rose without recognition rolling along done in the green Him alone life belongs in the dry what will be done prophesied weeping for love His children despised marred until latter rain received with one drop again we must first believe new life resurrection no longer weeds with a certain dwelling place which is free these three agree so are we in this earth drinking all we can until the new birth - by john Beam based on Anastatica The rose of Jericho. A resurrection plant is any plant with the habit of reviving after seeming to be dead or of seeming to revive when being in fact dead.
