I saw a rose, an ordinary rose
It struggled to be seen
In a garden overgrown
With harsh reality. I saw a rose, an ordinary rose
And this rose spoke to me,
Pleading for attention:
Is beauty not a need? I stopped to touch this ordinary rose
And it reached out to me,
Imparting its sweet fragrance
To my senses gratefully. I saw a man, an ordinary man
Who struggled to be seen,
His spirit languished on the streets
In dire neglect and need. I stopped to help this ordinary man
Who struggled to be seen,
And like the rose that bloomed with care
He too reached out to me. Fate placed these roses in our midst
So why should we complain?
Remember who created them
Who witnesses their pain. When next you meet that special rose
That struggles to be seen,
Remember, but for fate alone
That could be you or me.

Precious kitten/rose picture and very lovely writing!
To: jaycee
What a sweet story; I’m glad my roses reminded you of a friend. I pray that her condition will not get any worse for a long time.

I am having a bright sunny day, but we really need rain badly!
I will show off my Neptune just as soon as I get a decent bloom...one that hasn’t been fried by the hot weather.
Take care. Enjoyed joining in!

Again for the beautiful graphic and rose quotations.
They led to a very rosy, beautiful day indeed at Amy's Place.

Lady J., “An Ordinary Rose” is a wonderful poem but ..... your graphic of this ordinary rose is most definitely not! ;)
If every one of these roses bloom a sweet kitten, that is another rose bush I must get!!
