ROSE

in flower •  2 months ago 

In a quiet village, lived a girl named Elara, whose heart was as pure as the morning sun. In her garden, among the many blooms, there was one rose—different from the rest. Its petals were the softest shade of blush, and it always stood tall, even in the heaviest rains.

Elara loved the rose, but not for its beauty alone. She saw something deeper—an unspoken connection, as though the rose reflected her soul’s silent longing. Every morning, she’d tend to it, whispering her dreams, her fears, and her heart’s desires into its delicate petals.

One evening, under the light of a full moon, the rose began to shimmer. Its petals glowed softly, and a gentle voice emerged from it. "Elara," it whispered, "I have listened to your heart every day. I am not just a flower but a mirror to your soul. You seek love, yet fear it. You dream, yet doubt yourself. But like my petals, you are both delicate and strong."

Tears filled Elara's eyes as she realized that all the love and hope she poured into the rose had been reflected back to her. The rose had always been a reminder that her heart, though fragile, held immense beauty and strength.

From that night on, Elara no longer felt alone in her dreams. She carried the rose’s message in her heart, knowing that love, just like a rose, must be nurtured with care and patience. And every time she looked at the rose, she smiled, for she knew it was more than just a flower—it was a part of her.

The story weaves a beautiful connection between a girl and her rose, symbolizing self-love, reflection, and inner strength.
