~*~
A beautiful rose comes into bloom
With all her color gloriously showing
She starts out just as a small bud
Then soon her petals are glowing

She stands tall as she is displayed
For all others her glow to see
Feeling as if her beauty will remain
That she will always this delicate be

Then as the woes of life fall upon her
She tries to stand under the pressure
Yet she feels her petals are wilting
And searches for someone to refresh her

Just as she feels life is over
And her glow is ever gone away
From within she is fully revitalized
Then all her beauty again she will display

So much like life itself...lovely Ethel.
Check your email sweetie.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

Ethel, what a lovely poem this is, and I really like the graphic.  Know what?  I'm trying my best to learn PSP7 -- not easy and I'm just at the beginning -- but you have been such an inspiration and I'm not going to give up until I hit the "rose" point!   ....jo

Ethel Mae, I bet many women can identify with this rose. Beautiful and rejuvenating write, one to keep.

Love you lots, hope you're well.

and the rose....blooming to mature beauty,
wilting,  falling away...only to again bloom
over and over again...
