Rose In The Garden Poem by Obed dela Cruz

Do you know that I’m always waiting for your reply?
And do you know that I always want you to draw nigh?
For always, with beauty and respect I look at you.
I hope and wish that you know that I can see you through.

The garden in which you now live is one of the best
For there you cannot see dry bones or things that are vexed.
You’re one of the best blossoms in the land where you grow.
You’re not a sore in the eye, and this thing you must know.

Please allow me to pick you up in the near future.
So make haste to create your roots firmer and stronger.
Never let your beauty fade in the day or the night.
Dear rose in the garden, someday may you shine with light!

I will never bring your roots in the paths of danger.
As long as I can, I will shower you with water.
