Sweet sweet pink roses.....I brought them home days ago, as budding roses and placed them in a crystal vase. A few days later they opened completely and were the most beautiful presentation ever...gorgeous full blooms. Bright pink color eventually faded somewhat, but even then they were so pretty.....even when they drooped and fell over they were even yet, lovely dried roses. My intentions were to throw them away. When I picked up the vase, I could not do this deed, for they still had life left in them. A piece of antique lace held the stems together as they lay on the old settee. The morning sun found them and I planned that they should live on, for they had been created for admiration and so they were .....by me.
