Rosa All the Rage

What a Rose Can Say
 
  A rose can say I love you
And want you to be mine,
a rose can say I thank you
For being so very kind,

A rose can say congratulations,
Whatever the occasion may be,
a rose can say I miss you
And wish you were here with me,

A rose can say I'm sorry
If I've hurt you in any way,
a rose can say get well soon,
May God bless you today?

A rose can say I wish you happiness,
And the best for you each day.
A rose can say farewell
When someone goes away,

A rose can say hello,
I'm thinking of you today,
there are just so many wonderful things
That a rose can say,

A rose can say goodbye
When a love one is laid to rest,
No matter what there is to say,
A rose can say it best.

Anthony Smith

That is so beautiful, LJ!

It reminded me of one of my favorite songs:

Bette Midler, Wynonna Judd - The Rose

That's beautiful, LJ!

I cannot match it, try though I might.

Ode to a Cow

by Ruthanne Foster

Oh cow, of rolling pastures green
Where crow and bluebird fly serene

Cow, who art of formidable size
With wisdom in thine wide set eyes

Whose jaw in constant rumination
Turns fodder into milk for a nation

For you - no plough to pull in toil
Yet, you put back into the soil

When spring's thaw melts the banks of snow
Then, we can play "Cow Patty Bingo!"
