Know from a Rose Window

Know how it is never too late

to spread love instead of hate,

and rather than wait

for things to become better,

strive to be alive

by never ever giving up

without doing anything wrong

along with looking up,

and by witnessing the wonder

within the splendor of a rose,

dare to care while being fair

in more ways than anyone

would ever suppose,

and know how a rose window

can shine colorful light upon the soul,

and by becoming truly and purely whole,

an entire world filled with golden opportunities

can result in a life full of endless possibilities

by doing anything right both day and night

without the fear of vanishing out of sight
