Day 67 – Rose

1_Rose

A rose is a rose is a rose. But they are photogenic. Hard o miss with a closeup of a fresh rose.

Today John O’Donohue shares with us this short poem by St. John of the Cross:

I did not have to ask my heart what it wanted
because of all the desires I have ever known
just one did I cling to
for it was the essence of all desire:
to know beauty.
