It's Just A Rose You Say...









It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to a young girl of thirteen
it is a "Bouquet."

It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to a young woman of eighteen
it means "He Loves Me."

It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to the young mother
it is a celebration of "Life."

It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to the young bride
it means "Love everlasting."

It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to the wife of twenty-five-years
it means "He Still Loves Me."

It is just a rose you say,
a single rose...
But to the grieving widow
it is a kiss "Goodbye".

It is just a rose,
A single rose you say...
Is there someone in your life
waiting for a single rose today?

MY ROSE


She is a beauty to behold
She stands steadfast where she is planted
and is sturdy enough
to take transplanting in stride

She has thrived on a little watering
of love, care and daily nourishment
by those who have been blessed
with the gift of her presence

I am amazed and in awe at how
graciously she has blossomed

The power of her fragrance
is sublime
It permeates her surroundings
And all who pass by marvel at such
a wondrous creation of God

She colors the world around her
with her beauty and her love

She has a way of reaching
into your heart
in so many different ways
She cheers my soul,
stirs my senses
and puts a smile on my face

She is not just a Rose
I say...
She is my dearest friend

I love you my dear dear Rose...

Di

difficult to leave, and impossible to forget."
