Take a Word - Rose

The words are, of course, the lyrics from Bette Midler's song "The Rose".   I've always loved the way they depict the promise of tomorrow.   Thank you for visiting!

    The idea of the promise of tomorrow is powerful and necessary and the way you represented it is touchy and beautiful.
    Isn't delightful how you and Deann using the same lyrics did pictures absolutely different?
