A rose is a creation

A rose is a creation

A Poem by B.J
"

A creation

"
The rose is a secret of creation
It starts it's life as a tiny rosebud
A creations secret held by God
Petals that unfold in time
A secret of nature
Petals that open day by day
A rose that I hold dear
Shadows of roses appear
Time stands still when a rose opens
-
I've watched roses open day by day
A creation God holds in his hands
And watches his flower open magically
The hands of God are gentle
My hands can not open a rose bud
God's creation in the form of a rose
I put my trust in God to show me the way
To guide my rose to full bloom
I ask God to show me the way
For each step I take
I'll look to him for guidance
For each step that I take
God knows where I am
I trust him with my life
Just as the rose that I hold dear
He holds my rose in his hands
Watching it open magically
The hands of God are gentle
The rose is a secret of creation

I ask God to show me the way

For each step I take

I'll look to him for guidance




For each step that I take

God knows where I am

I trust him with my life

Just as the rose that I hold dear




I've watched roses open day by day

A creation God holds in his hands

And watches his flower open magically

The hands of God are gentle





AMEN! so true and so beautiful.

What a true thought, I had not thought of that, but it is important to return to the straight and narrow at times, at least so the story goes of pilgrims
