Rosa

Rosa the gem of flowers
the queen of every plant, 
in spring she wears her fineries, 
her beauty the eyes enchant.
 
Her colours are so attractive blushing with every hues, 
her aroma is so romantic 
to every love a muse.
 
Her greenish dress is gorgeous covering her prickly stem, 
her glossy leaves are oval, 
matching her precious gem.
 
As summer slowly approaches 
and spring will disappear, 
her rose buds, 
as greenish nubs 
will start to reappear.
 
With time her trunk will nourish 
and her buds will have matured, 
her tender petals shall slowly reveal beauty of great allure.
 
She’s found in every garden 
and sits in every vase, 
the site of Rosa in all events does leave a happy trace.

Hello Darlene, Yes flowers are beautiful, but roses are much more. " Every rose is a flower, but not every flower is a rose". In my part of the world, each colour has a meaning. e.g. red symbolizes love, while white symbolizes purity and yellow is the colour of jealousy. Thank you Darlene. Saleh
