Virtues

The only fear of leaving that day was the family I left behind
When I described you to the angels, I think of the colors of beautiful rose petals and the virtues that lie within. 

I couldn’t choose just one color,  So I found one very beautiful, one so very unique, so, I chose this color to send to you, for it makes yours virtues complete

The red is for all the love that our family could hold within

The green rose, a symbol of abundance, peace, and stability

The white rose, defined by it’s reverence, and everlasting love

The cream colored rose, a representation of perfection and richness. 

I chose this Teal Colored rose with petals undefined , the angels spoke to me softly and said I should make it mine
The virtues of the roses, that all my family holds
Now live within the petals of this beautiful Teal colored rose
