A Rose to Love

A Rose to Love

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

A Rose to Love

 

Tender and mild,

It grows strong and wild.

Opening to the touch

Of all consuming love.

 

Flourishing when watered,

It’s forever altered.

For it gains strength,

A rose to love at all lengths.

 

Planted in rich soil deep,

Nutrients it keeps.

Blooming to fullness,

It is blessed.

 

Though it has thorns,

It’s grateful to be born.

Reaching greater heights,

Onward it thrives.

 

Nurtured and cultivated,

Love is never wasted.  

It rises to the heavens,

A rose to love and never to end.

Thank you for reading.
Without some one to love we are just empty shells...thankfully God is always there to fill that empty spot. Valentine

Thank you for reading and for your review.
I agree dear Melinda.
"Nurtured and cultivated,
Love is never wasted.
It rises to the heavens,
A rose to love and never to end."
The above lines are true. Thank you for sharing your amazing poetry.
