Love is Like a Rose
So beautiful is love, like a rose.
So sweet the thoughts that love propose.
Appealing to most, if not all,
for its powerful lure we fall.
Yet you must beware of its beauty, its charm,
because the thorns can bring you harm.
Grasp carefully you must to avoid the pain,
so much to lose, so much to gain.
Once it’s obtained, for it you must care.
If health maintained, its blessings you will share.
If not tended, watered, it surely will wilt,
as will love, if tainted by lies and guilt.
But oh the happiness it will bring,
for true love found makes the heart sing.
Forever treasured, it will long last,
as preserved within enchanted glass.
Respect its strength yet fragility,
and it will bring enduring ecstasy,
then never will a petal fall,
for love is powerful and conquers all.
