The rose beyond the wall

This beautiful poem was on one of the many cards and messages we received about Rosemary:
A rose once grew where all could see
Sheltered beside a garden wall
And. as the days passed swiftly by,
It spread its branches, straight and tall
One day, a beam of light shone through
A crevice that had opened wide -
The rose bent gently toward its warmth
Then passed beyond to the other side
Now you who deeply feel its loss,
Be comforted - the rose blooms there -
Its beauty even greater now,
Nurtured by God's own loving care
