My roses are saying, Hi! <br />It is a welcome greeting… <br />Since their last good bye; <br />It is like our first meeting. <br /> <br />I hardly recognize the gems. <br />Their faces are brand new. <br />Smiling with sprouting stems… <br />Buds are baptized with dew. <br /> <br />I tidied up their bed yesterday: <br />Removing lifeless dead debris, <br />Pulling ravenous weeds away… <br />Bathe in sunlight and grow free.<br /><br />Theresa Ann Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/reborn-roses/
