♥ A raindrop landed upon the petal of the rose , lingered there  ~ refined in elegant repose. The rose laughed in joy and fragrant bloom. ♥ Then slowly, delicately, the raindrop slid, until finally it descended to the soil in respite. ♥ Absorbed by the earth to the roots it would flow, unbeknownst to the rose still there to help it grow. ♥ The rose in sorrowful solitude then looked up to the sky from whence the raindrop came ~ its leaves held up in gratitude. And in abundant mercy the rain softly fell from above. ♥ This is Love. ♥

Raindrop On A Rose
♥ A raindrop landed upon the petal of the rose , lingered there  ~ refined in elegant repose. The rose laughed in joy and fragrant bloom. ♥ Then slowly, delicately, the raindrop slid, until finally it descended to the soil in respite. ♥ Absorbed by the earth to the roots it would flow, unbeknownst to the rose still there to help it grow. ♥ The rose in sorrowful solitude then looked up to the sky from whence the raindrop came ~ its leaves held up in gratitude. And in abundant mercy the rain softly fell from above. ♥ This is Love. ♥
“That which God said to the rose and caused it to laugh in full-blown beauty,     He said to my heart,     and made it a hundred times more beautiful." ~ Rumi
