Rose Petals

& Beginnings

By Lauren BradyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

It’s all so new, beginnings.

The way the start of something makes you feel? Doesn’t it touch your soul and ignite that spark within, that flair, that excitement...I love that feeling.

That’s how I feel. Right now, with you.

I know we have a long ways to go.

But, this moment reminds me of something beautiful. I cherish these times that exist like magic. When we hold a rose by the stem and glide the petals across our cheeks we feel the softness. We feel it with every inch of our soul. Eyes closing, lips puckering into a smile. Admiring the sweet fragrance of new life, of natural beauty. Gazing at this miraculous creation and admiring the personality of something so bold yet still.

We are still. We are stuck in this moment of bliss. Enjoying the scenery. However, like a rose in bloom that just made its way into the world...we are in between the path of asking, what next? A rose must be nurtured to keep its form. A vase. water. love. I guess I wonder what we shall be? Will we forever gaze at one another or nurture this moment into something more? Only time will tell. The petals will either wilt or intensify with color. 🥀🌹🌻
