Beauty Awakens
In the Petals of a Rose
A delicate rose blooms in my garden
Reflecting a notion so courageous
Velvety petals beauty awakens
American Beauty gently calms us
≈≈≈
The sun and the wind caress its petals
Romantically flowing through the cool night
Comfort and beauty in my heart settles
Its vibrant color is a lovely sight
≈≈≈
Intense fragrance rich dark deep pink beauty
Captures my senses with thrill and delight
The wonders of earth fall deep into me
Bringing a glamour an elegant sight
≈≈≈
The rose stands strong among all the others
Fills me with love like that from my mother
