This Rose is for YOU!

I got a dozen roses, from a friend the other day;

But I only have 1 left, for I gave them all away.

I gave one to my friend, who to me is very dear,

In hopes that it will bring to her a little floral cheer.

I took one to a friend who's not feeling very well;

The flower or the visit..... 

which helped more I could not tell.

One went to a friend I haven't known for very long.

She struggles, so in some small way 

I hope this helps her carry on.

The rest went to the ones who've helped me 

in so many ways;

They have been a cheerful presence on 

my very dreary days.

The roses were so pretty I just could not 

keep them all,

Except one single bud standing beautiful and tall.

My friend gave me the flowers to help 

brighten up my day,

But the biggest joy I received was 

in giving them away.

This one is for you.
