SONG FOR THE FORGOTTEN ROSE
In the Garden of Life
Midnight hid the scarlet Rose
Wilted and torn, she cried to the Heavens
Petals upturned, imploring of God,
The Grace shine down from the Mountain
In this land journey a stalwart traveler
Alone, he had conquered roads forgotten
This path had led him through hills and valleys
His search for beauty
And God, looking down upon his creation
saw what they could not see
Hope in the hands of the Great Orchestrator
in the form of a rose and a man
Buried in the shadows
The wanderer stumbled and fell on roots he could not see
Lying among weeds
His eyes alighted on Beauty
For there, near his outstretched hand,
shone a Rose in moon’s pale gleam
Tenderly he touched her tear-stained petals.
A thousand lonely nights erased in a single moment
of Love’s sweet embrace
