Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. ~Lao Tzu~
Timeless Rose I remember thee,
Velvet soft petals,
In folds so gently.
Ever swirling inward bound,
Lightly touching,
Without a sound.
Wrapping curving in endless ways,
Ever soothing,
Through all my days.
Timeless Rose as last light goes,
Days are numbered,
Yet no one knows.
Stay a while for now you see,
Forever loving,
Through Eternity.

Tonight I thought I’d bring you a simple image, a single rose in peach hues, plus a short poem I wrote on roses.
I also found a few quotes related to the rose. You’ll find those below the image.
Life is like a rose with delicate parts,
With time it unfolds allowing growth to our hearts.
A rose is gentle, so fragile at times,
Like loving and life, so many rhymes.
Behold this rose, quite tender yet strong.
So we must be through all our days long.
~Rachel Cohen~
“They are not long, the days of wine and roses. Out of a misty dream, our path emerges for a while, then closes, within a dream” ~Ernest Dowson~
“But he who dares not grasp the thorn, should never crave the rose” ~Ann Bronte~
“As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round” ~Ben Hogan~
Have a great week ahead everyone! 🙂
