The Rose ~ Beauty, Truth, in its own reflection...

The Rose

Beauty, Truth, in its own reflection... 

Its bloom in beauty ever to be

roots, stem, thorns, petals, as ONE in grace I see

Its  truth of reflection I to behold

'tis the WORD in rapture by Creation told.

The Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus:

 "That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above,

 and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below, 

to accomplish the miracle of the One Thing."
