It is said that God created all things With this I have no argument My favorite two things in creation Are the rose and the woman I think God knew what he was doing When the creation took place Both the rose and the woman Can put a smile on this old mans face All roses are beautiful as is the woman With one slight difference A rose can be a thorn in the hand The woman a thorn in the side But now with the pun being said Lets get down to the real similarities Any one that knows me Knows what a rose means to me A rose is like a woman Some are soft and kind Easy to look at Easy to love Now a rose should be nurtured Sweetly talked to and gently touched Cherished and loved For it was made by God above To me a rose is like a rainbow It is beautiful anytime it is seen God gave us the rose to be Held in the hands with love The rose and the woman To me are to be treated equally For God took the time to create both Should a person not take the time To stop and smell the rose And treat it with the respect due So if someone sends you a rose It could be they think the world of you © Icyheart 07/20/02 |

  (smiles) Oh Alan, I couldn't agree with you more, I think the rose and the woman are the two most beautiful things in the world, my dream girl Joanna goes by the name RosePetal here and I love her so so much I could never say how much I love her! (big hugggsssss) This is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, my you always shower your love in roses of happy love, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Alan, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Alan, I recall several of your rose poems, and I think I can speak for many when I say, we have missed them! Welcome home, and please, stick around like a thorn in our side awhile, okay? |
