The Rose

When you are extremely soulful,
God sees you as a beautiful rose.
When you are not at all aspiring,
What does God see?
Only a few thorns.
God highly appreciates the rose,
But how can He appreciate the thorns?
*
If you have a heart,
Then you have a heart-garden too.
If you have a heart-garden,
Then you have a heart-rose as well.
If you have a heart-rose,
Then God the Lover of beauty *
Will definitely claim you
as His very own.
*
I see a garden
In your face.
I see a rose
In your heart.
I see celestial beauty
In your eyes.
*
A gratitude-heart
Is to discover on earth
A Heaven-delivered rose.
*
I am but a petal
Of the morning rose.
I see the morning sky.
For me the morning sun glows,
In me God's Hope-Light grows,
With me infinity's Beauty-Smile flows.
