I have but one dream I dream That dream is to be a rose To be so soft and tender To make friend's with all I know and then from spring to winter and winter back to spring I'd simply lay and fly away My Petals go with glee My Stamen be strong and gather along Then as I spring to life I'd crack a smile My Sepals in style And find myself a wife And as the cold chill winter Would gather in the air I would not fear I'd have a cheer For Roses live again
This is a way of expressing the fear of death because people die and do not come back like roses do we simply fade away into the past forgotten in time. But roses live on and on until their plucked and in that sense would it not be great to be a rose. I think it would because then life would have much purpose and thing's in general would make more sense. But life for humans is a mystery and quite and adventure.
