NaPoWriMo 2021, Day Three - Red Roses
A glance over the dismal scene
Often done with sad remembrance
The cold winter's brutal visit
A flicker of red caught my eye
The red roses survived the freeze
Loyally stood up to the blast
And now a new flower persists
Omen to red roses always
- - -
Red Roses a symbol of sweet love
Roses of red I love you always

A rose has always signified love. More so when it sustained itself through the cold months to make it everlasting. Good show Dr Jim!

And now we can trust that spring will come after such a long winter's wait. I have few roses, but other flowers appeared over the weekend to surprise me.
There is always extra magic in that first bloom after the cold months. And when that bloom is a rose, the magic seems even more lovely. Out here, we have the usual--daffodils, tulips, hyacinths--wild roses won't delight us with their presence until late spring.
This is absolutely marvelous!
I miss the garden I used to have ten years ago but it required much more from me than I could provide. So my current home in an apartment has plenty to keep me occupied andmuch more time available to write, write, write!
Beautiful, the sight of the first rose of spring. I am glad the buds survived. I need to restart a balcony garden in my new place..
What a lovely entrée to Spring!
What a lovely, lush environment surrounding home and grounds!!
