Simply Beautiful

If I were a rose and had to compose A verse on how you make me feel, I’d have to say in such a way With an analogy of something real. This is how it would go; Said the blooming rose to the Sunlight of spring, “You warm me, therefore I glow You nourish the soil in which I am planted, Therefore I grow. When I open my petals to fully Embrace your rays, it’s because You make me feel simply beautiful.” Said the blooming rose to the Rains of spring, “When I am covered in dust from Blowing winds, you cleanse me. When I am dry and wilting, You quench my thirst Supplying me with days of moisture And just like a scene rehearsed I open my petals to you because You make me feel simply beautiful.” Said the blooming rose to its bed, “You accepted me as I was, And as I grew into my own I became the true sense of The name for which I am known. My roots run deep because You make me feel simply beautiful.” Simply put, you are the sun that shines Ever so brightly in my eyes, You are the rain that quenches The spirit of my soul, You are the earth that Keeps me grounded and whole. With all that you do And all I know, Just like this rose, I will Continue to grow because You make me feel simply beautiful. Thank you Lord! 9/10/18
