A rose is a rose...

Rose is a rose
is a rose is a rose
-Gertrude Stein-

I cast my heart into my rhymes,
That you, in the dim coming times,
May know how my heart went with them
After the red-rose-bordered hem.
-William Butler Yeats-

The rose speaks of love silently,
in a language known only to the heart.
-Unknown-

The fragrance always stays in the
hand that gives the rose...
-Hada Bejar-

True friendship is like a rose;
we don't realize its beauty until it fades...
-Evelyn Loeh-

What's in a name?
That which we call a rose
By any other name
would smell as sweet.
-William Shakespeare-

The world is a rose; smell it
and pass it to your friends
-proverb-
