In Love With The Lord

A Prayer for The Rose

Like the secrets of a rose you inspire me. You have a special beauty to share and to me your spirit is so very magical. You have breathed life into me and I look upon you as if you were a precious rose. I hid my heart in a nest of roses out of the sun’s way, hidden apart. In a softer bed than the soft white snow’s is, under the roses I hid my heart. So fair, so sweet, withal so sensitive, would that the beautiful roses were born to live conscious of half the pleasure which they give.
