"My Special Rose“
By
Linda J. Hutchinson

Today I picked a rose
so perfect,

that
it's
beauty
made
me
cry.

Oh how it reminded
me of beautiful
roses,

that I had been given
through the years
gone by.

Those flowers were
given with deep
feelings

And were meant as
messages of love.

Each petal had been
sprinkled with
rainbow colors,

and was
blessed
by God
above.

As I held the rose
close to my heart,

I remembered the most
special person I ever knew.

Silently crying, I felt tears
run down my cheeks,

I saw them fall upon the
rose like sparkling dew.

With shaking hands I plucked
off one rose petal,

this
one
I would
press
and
save.

With love I kissed My
Special Rose,

and I placed it upon my
husband’s grave.

This presentation is made to share
with all of you have meant so much
in my life.
I love you all!
