~The Rose~

The Rose has been used as a Christian symbol since the thirteenth century. The Messianic Rose, usually a conventional form, is symbolic of the prophecy in the 35th chapter of Isaiah, "and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the Rose" , typifying the coming of Christ's kingdom. The Rose may also symbolize the Nativity; a White Rose or Mystic Rose, the Virgin; a Red Rose, martyrdom or divine love; a Rose on the Cross, the death of Christ. The Rose also symbolizes Love and reminds us during Advent of John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that
whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." Legend has it that only after the fall of man did the Rose take on its thorns to remind man of the sins he had committed and his fall from grace; whereas, the fragrance and beauty continued to remind him of the splendor of Paradise.

White Roses represent the purity of the love I have for you, 
and the unwaivering belief that we have 
come upon something that will only grow 
stronger as long as we trust in each other....

Red Roses are the passion I feel in my heart.
The fire you light deep inside of me that makes me
warm with just a thought of you....

~A Blue Rose~
Whose beauty the Dream Realm knows,
Of no earthly manifestation, discreetly kept,
Of more value unrevealed from Nature's miracle.
The rare, the precious perfection,
Quintessence of the Love of two.
The Fair Lady with her vessel of bounty and giving,
The Suitor with his Staff of enterprise and sustainment.
To hold gently nurturing with tender touch,
The cherished thoughts they create
In fragrance and feel, Magical, from pink to violet to blue.
