Lo how a rose e'er blooming...




Happy St. Valentine's Day and Lent, no less! These red roses are amazing...such perfect blooms. Well done, Proflowers. Valentine's Day festivities come at the perfect time- bleak mid-winter- and in this case, after a day of prayer and fasting. The burst of color is doing us all good. Thank you, my Valentine.
We love all things rose.

From the 15th Century German Carol, Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming:

This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere;
True Man, yet very God, from sin and death He saves us,
And lightens every load.

O Savior, Child of Mary, who felt our human woe,
O Savior, King of glory, who dost our weakness know;
Bring us at length we pray, to the bright courts of Heaven,
And to the endless day!
