A Single Rose

Missing image

A single rose

I share with you

planted by care

in the soil of your heart,

which might flower

within your smile

and blossom in joy.

 

To know it comes as reminder

of how you to me a flower,

special and unique

one I'll always cherish

as your AP grandpa.

 

Its petals will never wilt

nor die,

not fall to the earth

where they will be forgotten.

 

So take this verse stem,

place in a vase of your memories,

sit it on the windowsill of your thoughts

anytime you feel neglected.

 

Because you are the rose

who bring so much love and care

that we all enjoy,

hoping this seed of stanza

buds as peace for you.

 

That it always will linger

wherever you are

with the fragrance

of happiness.

Author notes

I hope this brings you a hug, Emmy. Thank you for being part of your Ap grandpa's life.
