The rose is a common flower,
and sometimes goes unnoticed -
when our attention is remotest.
But, a rose has a special power.
Being a blossom that is clever,
she garners our attention
with affectionate intention,
using fragrance as a lever.
Sometimes, we, too, miss people here.
Our soul warns, when we drift from shore,
not to forgot what we are here for.
It's voice, a lever, for those held dear.
What is the fulcrum that we can't see,
that makes these caring levers work?
I do not understand nature's quirk -
It's a beautiful mystery.
