As The Beauty of the Rose
By: CHARLIE
For: PRINCESS HEATHER
When wrapped in the light
of the golden sun.
The rose opens its
petals with love.
To drink in the warmth
and care that
God has given.
Starting as a young bud
it grows
into the beauty of
the rose
Rejoicing in the life
it is living.
Love is as the rose
It begins as a smile,
a look, or a gentle hello.
When nourished with the
warmth of the heart
It grows into the beauty
of the rose.
Yet as the rose,
If your love is not
nourished with warmth
and care,
The petals will fall,
the beauty will fade
Your love will
no longer be there.
Thus, take your love and
embrace it with your heart.
Giving as only you can
It will renew in its beauty
as when love first began.
Growing in the warmth
of your heart
as graciously as God
has chose.
Showing its tenderness
to the world, as does the beauty
of the rose.
