  Life's Friendship Garden

by Mary Beatty  
 

Wandering alone through life's friendship garden

I pause with you in mind 
To snip a handful of dew-kissed roses
Of an everlasting kind.
 
 The Lavender rose stands for Hope
Pristine White for Reverence
Yellow is for Friendship
Spicy Pink for Grace.
Around the bend a fresh herb or two:  
    Ivy green for Trust and Loyalty
Sweet Rosemary for Remembrance
Ruffled Iris for Faith and Charity.
  But tenderly nurtured
And most precious will be
The Red Rose for Love
Front center you'll see.
From life's friendship garden
I forward to you
This bouquet of flowers
Of everlasting hue.

 FOREVER FRIEND

An everlasting rose for you

and for all those you love

and for all those who love you

    Be blest.
