In my garden the red rose has been growing
long before I arrived here
it has become like a beacon of hope glowing
that forever is showing
the will to survive whatever hardships faced
since in the earth placed!
When in bloom the deep red petals enthrall
my belief in life transcends
what a magnificent flower there firm and tall
the message of hope it sends
an ability to take anything and bounce back
a hardiness we often lack!
Through all weathers children pets and time
seeming to die and resurrect
withers bursting back into bloom so sublime
watching the phases connect
like an eye on civilisation there before me
humbly in awe I look at thee!
The Red Rose is there for everybody to see.
