I'm Not a Rose

I'm Not a Rose

A Poem by Jenni Bailey
"

A poem about how every person grows differently.

"
Here, lies a garden - a beautiful one 
Planting flowers in a row, giving room
To bloom, and perfectly grow in the Son

But, here's a story
For you...  no flower is the same
And from above, they get shared glory

Every flower needs the Son
Some more than others
One is wilting-just one

It needs more help to grow
It feels like a weed, it's slowly shriveling
It's dying, it's drying up... what you should know

I'm not a rose
But, you still chose
Me to grow in this one garden
That you're startin' 
I need the same Son
Even though, I'm a different one
I knew I'm not a rose, but I can still grow, (just at a different pace)
Shine the Son in my face
I'm not a rose, but I'm still a flower
I hear the Son crying, from His beautiful Tears, I need a shower!
I need it to be okay, that I'm not a rose
Because every part of this flower grows!
