The Marriage Rose

“The Marriage Rose”

The marriage rose grows without any strain
It has seen joy in its blooms but also has seen pain

The beautiful bloom also has its thorn
And without hesitation a brand new bud is born

One bloom dies and another bloom grows
It’s a beautiful process and through eternity flows

Its pedals are soft and the fragrance is sweet
With the passion of time they fall calmly to our feet

Bewildered I give one to my new soul mate
The universe guides us to a new loving fate

Given through love that will never ever die
Love has its joy but will also make us cry

Now I only see blooms and the thorns are no more
With a love that blesses me right down to my core

And this is the question I most humbly pose
Will everyone see the beauty of a joyous Marriage Rose?
