Grandma's Roses

Life is not unlike that of a rose

we wait and wish for life to begin
we watch and protect the buds as the prepare to bloom into their full beauty
and then when in full bloom - we should cherish every moment -- until the last petal falls

Life is a bouquet of flowers - drink in the beauty around you -- I am.

Thanks to all the flowers in my garden! Each one of you is a rare delight!
