The Rose Beyond the Wall

A rose once grew where all could see, sheltered beside a garden wall.
And, as the days past swiftly by, it spread its branches, straight and tall
One day, a beam of light shone through a crevice that had opened wide.
The rose bent gently toward its warmth. Then passed beyond to the other side
Now, you who deeply feel its loss, be comforted, the rose blooms there.
It’s beauty even greater now. Nurtured by God’s own loving care.
