A rose so beautiful,
even the wind dare not touch it.
Brilliant red petals,
Van Gogh couldn't match the colors.
Petals so soft,
the clouds cry out in shame.
With every drop of rain,
the rose grows still more beautiful.
The sun rises each day,
to showcase its beauty.
In time,
one by one,
petals slowly fall,
until all are gone.
A stem left standing all alone,
and beauty still remains.
Now if the world could only understand,
that there is always more beauty in the rose,
than in the beauty of its petals.
