A Rose in My Garden

As though the whole red ambience of the

Nascent Sun had converged into a miniscule

Form, my garden is looking heavenly in the

Breathtaking presence of a solitary red rose,

Smiling genuinely, and spreading his Fragrance in all directions where the wind

Blows gently with full vigour;

Blooming alone in a private garden amidst

The flowers of many hues and kinds,

Does not sadden him, in the least; rose

In the garden signifies the majesty of love,

And magnificence of mother nature’s

Immortal and eternal earthly magic;

I visualize God’s tender fingers in his soft

Petals, and see the bright light falling

On my life’s thorny path; I feel the presence

Of divine hands on my bowed head, and

I’m filled with courage abounding to fight

The incessant battles on the battlefield of

Life with a victor’s mindset;

Often I feel overwhelmed by the stunning

Beauty of a small though enchanting flower,

Standing tall in the green grass surrounding;

I yearn to spend my future time by looking

Intently with deep desire to emulate

The godly presence of my red rose-most

Beautiful and solitary to the core.
