Restoring the Rose
A rosebud once blossomed
and became a rose
but lost its red petals
to a horror it chose
Someone plucked little rosebuds
before they could bloom
and left in their place
only sorrow and gloom
But petal by petal
a strong Gardener’s hand
Refashioned the flower
that was meant for His Land
And no more did that flower
have to dread what it chose
for ever and ever now
she was His rose.
