My Rosebud

BY Traci Young

Once there was a beautiful little rosebud........
Day by day he bloomed just a little bit more....
He grew more and more beautiful-----
he was trying to become a rose...

Then one day my little rosebud died
and all the roses gathered together to cry.
For they loved their little rosebud with all their heart,
and never did dream they would ever be apart.
As the year passed on the roses thought
of their little rosebud who had gone away---
But learned to smile for they knew
they would be togther again someday..

So my little rosebud--
though it was not how I would have chose--
It was in my heart-- You grew into a beautiful rose..
