Notes About The Poem
As the rose opens accepting the early dew, so our hearts open accepting love that is kind and true..

Like a Rose

.
                                                     Heart
                                                    Opens
                                                Like a rose
                                             Gradually gives
                   Each kind word, gentle touch_heart's fragrance blooms
                       Love's precious scent lures_gives in return more
                                             Generous gifts
                                             Kindness grows
                                                Blossoms
                                                  Grace

The heart is indeed like a lovely blossom. It is also just as easily bruised when as it opens it is rejected. Nice job. God Bless, JB
