"The rose is the symbol of transience,
of spring and beauty,
of completion and perfection.
It is a symbol of Love
and metamorphosis
of passion"
~Author unknown~
Have you ever seen a rosebud
Just opening in the sun?
The dewdrops shine like diamonds,
Slowly melting one by one.
~Author unknown~
It is only a tiny rosebud --
A flower of God's design;
But I cannot unfold the petals
With these clumsy hands of mine.
~The secret of unfolding flowers~
Is not known to such as I --
The flower God opens so sweetly
In my hands would fade and die.
If I cannot unfold a rosebud
This flower of God's design,
Then how can I think I have wisdom
To unfold this life of mine?
So I'll trust in Him for His leading
Each moment of every day,
And I'll look to Him for His guidance
Each step of the pilgrim way.
For the pathway that lies before me
My Heavenly Father knows -
I'll trust Him to unfold the moments
Just as He unfolds the rose.

~The Heart and the Rose~
May your day be uplifted
filled with sunshine and warmth
the shining rainbows of hope
the white clouds of dreams
the gentle softness of breeze
the sweet smell of fresh air.
May your day be uplifted
from start to end
filled with joy and happiness
untroubled and serene.
May your day be uplifted
in all that you do.

~Friendship Rose~
Just like a rose,
so precious and rare,
is the forever friendship
the two of us share.
Planted with kindness,
it's warmed by the sun
of caring and sharing,
laughter and fun.
It's grounded in trust
and nurtured by love,
with a sprinkling of grace
from God up above.
Tears of sadness and joy,
like dew, renew this friendship
I share with you.
And in the heart's garden,
we find the room to be ourselves,
to grow and bloom.
A blessing of beauty unsurpassed,
our friendship's a flower
that will always last.

~Love is like a butterfly~
Love is like a butterfly in so many, many ways.
It brings a bit of sunshine even on gloomy days.
It makes our souls feel lighter just to know it's there
And gives our spirits wings, as if floating in the air.
It carries us to places that we never knew before
And comes in many sizes, shapes and hues galore.
Once we've seen it, we wish to hold onto it so tight
But like a frail butterfly, we must allow it free flight,
For if we should try to cage it up and hold it in a pen,
We'll surely crush its wings, and it'll never fly again.
To keep that love glowing in our hearts each day,
We must remember always to give some of it away.
Every little bit we give to someone else to share
Comes back tenfold, and we've so much to spare.
Put your love on gossamer wings, and give it flight;
It will return to you, and bring you much delight.
