How To Care for A Rose

It is simple, really

To transplant a rose.

Preserve it with care.

The petals need soft rain

The right amount of sun. 

 Proper nourishment 

Good drainage

And a gentle hand

Much like a human.

Fragile beauty

Requires nurture

And respect.

Demand too much, too quickly

It will show its thorns

Expect nothing.

It will regard your trust.
