It finds its own way

It represents love

Like heaven above

It’s the beating heart

That knows where to start

It touches the soul

It makes life whole

And it makes clear

What it holds dear

The rose is a seed

That performs every good deed

It holds us close

Cause we matter most

It takes us far

Without leaving a scar

It keeps us strong

It corrects every wrong

It sees us through

No matter what we do

It teaches lessons

That become confessions

It’s a dream

Strange though it may seem

And as it grows

It becomes the rose
