The prayer of roses
The prayer of roses
Beloved God, help me to become
a bed of roses – rose upon
rose,
rose and rose and still yet
roses
until I am roses no more –
only fragrance
and help me to blend and
cling then
to the divine fragrance
of the one heavenly Rose
until the very end.
O child of God, in the noose
of Its fragrance,
the nightingale becomes the
Rose.
