If you have ever studied Roses, you will find volumes of 'wonder'.
Most of us look at a Rose and see that it is beautiful. We enjoy the scent. The Rose is sometimes the first flower that a person thinks of to give as a gift. A Rose is received with great thankfulness from the giver. Roses speak volumes. What does a Rose say to 'You'? Is a Rose just a Rose?
A Rose has a strong stem. A Rose has thorns to bring forth it's beauty. A Rose is fragile. A Rose has a short 'bloom' life. Wow, who would want such a gift that does not last long; almost Everyone! It gives 100% of love and beauty to others as long as it has to give.
As we have studied the relationship of the Rose/The Beloved, the Rose Garden/His children, let us review a bit. The entire world could be choked with thorns, so to speak; A lover's heart will stay a Rose Garden. Now, why is that? 'Love' changes everything forever. Simply put but so true.
Then why do we, humans, make it so complicated? I will leave that with you. A question to ponder and wonder. All of us would be happier if/when we realize that the Rose/Beloved will always be a vibrant and beautiful sight. Always and ever with us and always and ever loving us.
The Rose speaks volumes of 'LOVE'. As we view a Rose, it speaks volumes but it cannot speak. However, every time we see a Rose, we feel warm inside and a sense of Love, do we not? The Rose Garden can be a vibrant and beautiful sight, as well. At every turn, as the beauty of the soul rises up in wonder and remains fresh in the Rose Garden's soul, there will always and ever remain that feeling of Love flowing and touching others. It is a given. It is there always, freely given.
Are we feeling the touch
of the fragrance along our way?
It can gently flow in beauty of light
always and ever, every day.
The Rose is the Beloved.
The Rose Garden is 'His own'.
This is a gift freely given.
One, more precious than ever known.
The essence of our being is 'Love'.
It will gently glide us along.
Positive emotions and one's beliefs
can change our lives with more song.
More and more, we will see the beauty
and feel the calm as we love thee still.
In thy waking, in thy sleeping,
every hour with comfort fill.

You began your day writing and I end mine reading what you write!
ReplyDeleteInteresting but relaxing for me, as the words flow so well and yet they
are so meaningful! Thanks to God and you.
I appreciate your lovely comment. When I hear words of 'thanks' for my writings, it encourages me to press on in sharing the words that I am given. I have continued writing on a leap of faith. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteYes Roses do remind us of Love!! Red for love, yellow for Friendship and white for Death. So Roses do speak to us in their own way. Thanks for the reminder, beautifully written.
