A rose once grew where all could see, Sheltered beside a garden wall,
And, as the days passed swiftly by, It spread its branches, straight and tall.
One day, a beam o f light shone through A crevice that had opened wide-
The rose bent gently toward its warmth Then passed beyond to the other side.
Now, you who deeply feel its loss, Be comforted - the rose blooms there,
Its beauty even greater now, Nurtured by God's own loving care.
