There’s a rose outside my window
And I almost missed seeing it like I did the other two
As I took the time to look at it, I wondered –
Of all the beautiful things I’ve missed doing all the things I need to do.
This rose, it grows outside my window
greeting the sun before I wake.
Tiny buds that open so
sweetly with each passing
hour of the day,
surrendering –
giving in
to the
din
