The Legend of theChristmas Rose
Our story started long agoAmidst the frozen snow.We're told that if your heart is pureit's magic you will know.
Each year a star shines overheadAs praises of new life ring,Below the stark white overlaya small bush does spring.
It bares the lovely flowers so rareto mark the holy ground,Where once there lay an infant KingAs many gathered around
His parents kneeled beside him there,And others came to pray.This special celebration became Known as Christmas Day.
That humble shelter is long gone now,but in its place there grows,The unigue bush whose fragrant bloomis called the "CHRISTMAS ROSE."
This poem was given to me with a rose attached to remember that this Christmas: the poinsetta is not thee only Flower of the Season.
