Again honored to have one of the beautiful micropoems of Cletis L Stump on one of my photos. It perfectly matches the soft light on this pink rose beautifully. You can enjoy his poetry at his Late Night Footfalls blog and his art right here at Fine Art America!
Rose: � (love � remembrance � beauty)
The rose is always associated with love and romance. Roses were introduced to Europe during the Roman Empire and predominantly used for decoration. Roses were first cultivated 5,000 years ago in Asian gardens, and Confucius declared that the emperor of China owned more than 600 books on the cultivation of roses. It is thought that the name Rose is a short form of a Germanic name which contained the word Roses are emblems of England and New York City. It is thought the name rose has Germanic origins.
Pink Rose: - (admiration, appreciation, love, gratitude, gentleness)
Bright and beautiful to behold, but pink roses are also fabulously versatile when you have something important to say. A classic symbol of grace and elegance, the pink rose is often given as a token of admiration and appreciation. Whether they�re for your best friend, fianc�e or ever-dependable cubicle mate, a pink rose bouquet will create a bright spot in a special someone�s day.
A little sweet, a little sentimental, but packing contemporary color punch, pink roses are your go-to multipurpose roses. Whether you�re sending thanks, cheering up a friend, or a recognizing a romantic occasion, a bouquet of pink roses gets it right every time.
Horticulturally speaking, pink roses are a classic�they were the first color rose cultivated, since pink roses are most common in the wild. It went on to enjoy a long history in Western art and decoration before the Victorians went the whole nine yards with the pink rose�s sentimentalism, depicting it everywhere from wallpaper to upholstery to greeting cards. Since then, the world�s love affair with the blushing beauties has continued, but we now see it getting a more contemporary treatment in sophisticated bouquets.
The pink rose has always been associated with feelings of love and gratitude, but as evolving cultivation techniques have created a wider array of pink rose shades, the meanings attached to them have become more nuanced. It�s said that darker pink roses are symbolic of gratitude and appreciation, while lighter pinks are associated with gentleness and admiration. All good stuff, which brings us back to the original point that you simply can�t go wrong with pink!
