Love is Like a Rose

Love is like a rose
It will blossom for a while
If it’s not cared for it can
Fade away without a smile

Love is like a rose
As special as it can be
It needs some tender care
Like the love between you and me

Love is like a rose
No matter what color it may bloom
But it may never grow
If we don’t give it enough room

Love is like a rose
With its thorny little stem
If you don’t watch for the thorns
You can easily get stuck by them

Love is like a rose
That keeps blooming inside your heart
And keeps right on growing
Even if you’re so far apart

Love is like a rose
In many shades of color don’t you see
But this is one special rose
That grows just for you inside of me

    After reading it I took a deep sigh of great relief. Small as it is, to me it carries the whole story of love(what it is,how it should be handled/cared 4) Thanks indeed. I really love it

    Great poem. But some romantic music would be better. Music does not fit the poem.

    Good poem serves my heart right;change the music though to match the beautiful words.

    The poetry is as beautiful as the rose itself,
    Each word of the verse like the enchanting pearls of dew.
    It is “LOVE” that makes everything around -
    So sublime , so serene and so pretty too.

    The poem is fab’ Wow! but the music accompanying it is quite boring

    Thank you baby, made my day.

    I love you too, more than I can say.

    A lovely on you’ve got there so full of life but the music is gloomy. It contradicts the bloomy nature of the poem. A second thought made me to understand the love of man can never be compared to the love of God. For the love of God does not break hearts. With the love of God one needs not watch for “thorny little stem” thus u don’t get stucked

  35. CharleneG.

    I agree, “Love Is Like A Rose”…..It blooms for awhile, must be taken care of delicately w/lot of water and Love AND THEN IT DIES!!!!!!!! (unless it is “nurtured by our “God Above”)

  36. CharleneG.
    4:24 pm on April 7th, 2009

    Lots of water and love, without God as “in charge of your life”, NOTHING CAN SURVIVE. If you want to REALLY wish me a “Happy Birthday”, do not come to Florida, Bob. Be with your wife, BECKY, on HER BIRTHDAY and mine, 4/9.

    I’ve changed the music to a more upbeat song. I hope you will like it.

    Love is of the heart, it is pure and forgive, the red petals of the flower show Love, for Love is Purity.

    the cent of a rose is as pleasant like that of a pretty woman.

    I agree with some others I don’t like the change in your format and the music don’t fit– but I do like the poem, come on guys get back to what ya had — why mess with perfection which is what ya had before–??

    Love is an attraction with external appeal, to begin with.
    Then, it is an inner attraction, to go with.
    Then, it is a harmony of Nature like this Rose -
    unwilling to fade or wither in the right climate.
    And the love builds beyond the grave!!

    It is as if we know it all, but the message is clearer now, this is just the truth about LOVE, thank God for this wonderful thing (LOVE). Thanks a lot too, We learn everyday.

    Please go back to the old format. And where have all our previous messages gone…..??????????? I used to read them now and then. It was comforting. Those messages contained part of my life. It was like looking at an album and experiencing the joys and sorrows of those times. MISS THEM AND LONELY HILL, WHERE ARE YOU? MISS YOU TOO
