The Rose

Like life itself, a Rose begins its Journey fragile and unseen.  It slowly rises, blossoms into beauty and eventually withers away with time.  Yet death is never truly the end, for with every drop of rain that falls upon the soil, another Rose is born to bloom again. ‘ The Rose” explores the eternal cycle of life and death, a reminder that endings give way to new beginnings, and that beauty continues to grow through every season.

The Rose

A Rose resembles many things,

Happiness, Sadness, all that life brings.

When conceived in the Earth,

It bestows on us the beauty of birth.

Roots grow long, slender and wild,

And likens to a beautiful child.

Luscious red when in full bloom,

Ripening youth swiftly looms.

The saddest part of the enchanting Rose,

Is when it withers and no longer grows.

Just as it decays and dies,

We recognise our own demise.

But with every drop of rain that flows,

Another beautiful Rose will grow.
