She wore a red velvet dress and surrounded herself with brilliant blues and greens...
Rose was happy and had everything she could wish for.
Her garden was her kingdom. It was nature in full bloom... colourful flowers, wild grasses, bees, blue sky... and a warm, gentle breeze. It was the garden of love and beauty.
Nature’s living bouquet.
But as seasons come and go, Rose’s world began to change...

“Do not watch the petals fall from the rose with sadness, know that, like life, things sometimes must fade, before they can bloom again.” ~ author unknown
Rose Dress by Anne Gudrun
But the Essence of the Rose lives on...
Rose is in every golden pink sunset and every blossoming garden.
She is a summer day...
She is love and passion... ruby red... her element is fire, burning bright with desire... and in the fullness of life!
When you experience love, you experience the essence of the Rose.
'The rose speaks of love silently, in a language known only to the heart.' ~ author unknown
