For my cousin Rose who has become one of the biggest hearts in our Den family....

An Image Of The Sweetest Flower


 


The wild rose grows in my front yard


The aroma fresh and sweet as a sigh


The petals soft as a spring breeze


I’ll love them till the day that I die


 


Their thorns can pierce like a knife wound


If you do not treat with respect


They need now and then some attention


They are too sweet and fragile to neglect


 


I hold in my mind one sweet memory


A blossom never too far from my heart


Of a rose that blooms in the summer


My mind holds this picture so it never departs


 


Now the petals of love may fall easy


Scatter like dust to the cold winds of Fall


Winter snows may bury her branches


Yet this beauty is always their when I call.

The pedals of a rose always permeates throughout centuries.
The sweetest rose with aroma dwells forever in the palms it held.

Fee,
This is a beautiful tribute to Rose. I was stunned when, after spending a couple of hours in my Den (having never been there before), Rose wrote me a poetic tribute. This poem is very fitting to the kind soul and gifted poet she is.

Fee, somehow I suspect that "when I call" is reciprocated.
You have honored her with such a beautiful and heartfelt write.

Cousins you may be
you come from the same original tree
only to make each other happy
and to God give glory!

I often told Rose so many times she had written the words I could not say. Looks like it runs in the family. Beautiful tribute to her. You both are so lucky to have found this relationship.

A thousand words ran through my mind when I was thinking about how to comment on this wonderful poem my dear. Two stuck - charming and lovely. I too have a wild rose growing in my yard. It sends out roots that create a new bush here and there and it reminds me of someone very dear to me. This poem is a keeper as are all of yours.

How gorgeous is this, Darlin? The last rose of summer... the petals that hang by a thread... Surely this tribute captures the sigh of love's full-bloom and the heart-sickness as the last petal floats elegantly to the ground, never to be forgotten. Such are your memories which never fade but are relived daily as you partake of each other's fragrance afresh on pages here at the Den. Cousins you most definitely are... is your family called Love, by any chance? Such familial bonds are a joy to witness and the grace with which you blossom each other, together and apart, is a lesson in what it means to be family. You are branches of the same tender vine. And your vintage is sweet. Love, Kate xx
