roses

have you ever heard a tale of roses…?once upon a time..or long long ago…

do you think of disney?perhaps you would picture the innocent snow white who has lips red as roses or sweet belle a.k.a beauty and her supposedly charming prince a.k.a beast with the enchanted rose…

a rose never will lose it's charm…it mesmerizes us with its ravishing beauty…it triggers the realm of imagination with its sophistication…oh,no one could deny Roses…

yes.whenever i think of roses.it would remind me of the proud yet vulnerable rose in “the little prince”…its funny but i do see some resemblance in me and that rose…thorns exist simply because its an instinct for self-protection…who would have known that fragility comes with such loveliness?

“The rose is a flower of love. The world has acclaimed it for centuries. Pink roses are for love hopeful and expectant. White roses are for love dead or forsaken, but the red roses, ah the red roses are for love triumphant.”unknown

“God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.”James Matthew Barrie

“It is the memory that enables a person to gather roses in January”unknown

“The sweetest flower that blows,
I give you as we part.
For you it is a Rose,
For me it is my heart.” Frederick Peterson

“A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose.” Gertrude Stein

“Time brings Roses.” Portuguese Proverb

“Won't you come into the garden? I would like my roses to see you.” Richard Brinsley Sheridan

“It was roses, roses, all the way,
With myrtle mixed in my path like mad.” “Still more labyrinthine buds the rose.” Robert Browning

“I am the rose of Sharon, the Lily of the valley.”The Bible (Song of Songs 2:1)

“The rose speaks of love silently, in a language known only to the heart.”unknown

“A profusion of pink roses bending ragged in the rain speaks to me of all gentleness and its enduring.”“It is at the edge of the petal that love waits.”William Carlos Williams

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet.”William Shakespeare

even william shakespeare uses roses in his masterpiece…the bible speaks of Jesus as the rose of Sharon too.now no wonder roses are so extraordinary…i mean,roses are that inspirational

btw…i love this quote so much…

“Give her two red roses, each with a note. The first note says For the woman I love and the second, For my best friend..”unknown
