Love and Care

There was an ugly rose bush in the NC garden. Thorny and wild it looked out of place. The petals always dropped before it fully bloomed. If you got too close you were doomed. I wanted to destroy the ugly bush, but others wished to save it. So I pruned it, fed it, and watered it. Months later the rose bush decided to give back a gift. A perfect rose to be enjoyed, and I wanted to share it with all of you.

Oh, Beautiful Rose
Open your petals for us,
Bring joy to our nose.
