She is the first of my roses to bloom this Spring. I love the gentle lines she boasts. She is a beauty. I had to show her off today.
Few flowers compare to the classic beauty of the Rose. She closes gently around herself while waiting for her time to shine, her budding form soft to the touch. Then quietly, while we are unaware, she unfolds sweetly, revealing her intoxicating fragrance and beauty. She is both majestic and demure. Inviting and threatening. Complex, as the most exquisite creatures are. After all, she is the Rose.
May Your week be filled with beauty and gratitude to the Maker of all things.

You are my first and only rose. This could have been me talking about you.
