A Dozen Christmas Roses
One rose for the times we’ve shared and the memories we’ve made
One rose for being someone I can trust
One rose for accepting me as I am
One rose for forgiving me the mistakes I’ve made
One rose for taking the time to listen even when you don’t understand or agree
One rose for being there when I need you
One rose for letting me be there when you need someone
One rose for the hopes and dreams and feelings you share
One rose for your actions that speak louder than words
One rose for knowing when to speak and when to offer silence
One rose for your smile that brings joy into my world
And one rose for being one of life’s most beautiful gifts
Twelve roses because you are important to me and I love you.

Christmas roses are scientifically named Helleborus niger. Despite the similarity in name to domestic garden roses, they are a different species. Although they can be visually appealing, some varieties of Christmas roses should not be touched or ingested because they are poisonous to humans and animals, including pets, livestock, and wild animals.
