A Christmas Rose

Each December near my home
There blooms a CHristmas rose
Unharmed by snow or bitter cold
This lovely blossom grows

I know not why it does not die
When wintery breezes press
I only know a brighter world
Comes from its loveliness

A legend says that Christmas rose
Came that first Christmas day
So that a child might have a gift
Before her Lord to lay

May God's rich gifts be your today
His blessings fall anew
And whether skies be dark or fair
May roses bloom for you ...

A Christmas Rose....

Dita, that's such a beautiful poem. Wouldn't a rose blooming in the snow be a wondrous sight - you'd have to believe. Have a wonderful weekend - we'll probably be Christmasing all next week here at the Finest.
