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
