Obituary of George Edwin Layman
The Rose Still Grows
Near shady wall a rose once grew,
Budded and blossomed in God’s free light
Watered and fed by morning dew
Shedding its sweetness day and night.
As it grew and blossomed, fair and tall
Slowly rising to loftier height
It came to a crevice in the wall
Through which there shone a beam of light.
Onward it crept with added strength
With never a thought of fear and pride
It followed the light through the crevice’s length
And unfolded itself on the other side.
The light, the dew, the broadening view
Were found the same as they were before
And it lost itself in beauties new
Breathing its fragrance more and more.
