20th OCTOBER (Happy Bday, Mum)


Please let me share this poem. This was shared to me when my mum passed away. I hope I made her proud.



THE ROSE BEYOND THE WALL


A rose once grew where all could see

Sheltered against a garden wall,

And as the days passed swiftly by

It spread it's branches straight and tall.



One day a beam of light shone through

A crevice that had opened wide,

the Rose bent gently towards its warmth,

then passed beyond to the other side.


Now you who deeply feel it's loss,

be comforted, the Rose blooms there.

It's beauty even greater now,

nurtured by God's loving care.
