Poetry: Roses

by Lora Kay Alexander

The Homegrown Rose

I saw it on my window sill,
It made my heart almost
Stand still.
It's beautiful, it radiates,
It glows...
It's breathtaking!
The homegrown rose.
To think a seed could grow into
Something so unique, so new,
So wondrous as the wind
That blows...
How mystical, the homegrown
Rose.
