A Rose in Winter is Still a Rose

Enough snow photos!
We yearn for the warmth and color of Spring.
There is something about a rose,
even just a photo of a rose,
that evokes warmth, a memory of a pleasant aroma.
Maybe if we look at it a few minutes,
it may fool us into thinking Spring has come.
Even if it doesn’t completely succeed,
we will be better for having done so.
