The Rose Beyond the Wall

A rose blooms, beyond the wall,
Hidden, yet stands tall.
Its petals reach for skies unseen,
In colors of deep crimson sheen.

Behind the barrier, it grows,
Where no gardener's hand knows.
Wild, it thrives in secret shade,
Its beauty never to fade.

The wind carries its gentle scent,
Across the wall, a message sent.
A symbol of hope, of unseen grace,
In hidden spaces, it finds its place.

Beyond our sight, it may well be,
But in our minds, we can see.
A rose that grows, against the odds,
Beyond the wall, in secret sods.
Rose blooming beyond an old stone wall
Rose blooming beyond an old stone wall
