THE ROSE

THE ROSE
Sometimes God picks the rose that we have

loved so well and takes it home to heaven

where soul and spirit dwell. He saw its petals

falling and swept it up in love to place it in a

mansion by His grace to live above. So we

grieve not as the faithless, asking why

He took the rose, for we know that blooming

yonder is our rose in sweet repose.

(c) GBlank
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;

and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow,

nor crying, neither shall there be anymore pain:

for the former things have passed away.

Revelation 21:4
