"Of all the flowers growing within the garden close And all their gifts bestowing there's nothing like a rose. They seem to tell a story that evey day is new When blooms in all their glory are smiling back at you. And all the cares of living just seem to fade away To see the roses giving their best through every day. A message to the weary, the sad and oft depressed A message bright and cheery to those who love them best. A dream of fragrant beauty from God's creative hand To show that love and duty are things to understand." --Author unknown, 1951 American Rose Annual
