Love symbol the Red rose



I realize the importance of red rose at that time, when, when

She request me, "I want a red rose from you only". And this statement is still written on the top left corner of my heart.


I still remember my college life, when at the last day we found only one rose in college garden but there were five girls and we were four, then there was no other choice left, the only idea came to our mind was, to pass the same rose again and again to share the love and sincerity, and when the rose touches the last hand, he or she will have it and we enjoyed a lot, now it becomes a part of my memories.
Then an idea click on my mind that, "I think now I have to write on a red rose". This is not the end, familiarity and importance of red rose as a symbol of love, comes true when poets choose only red rose from 3400 species of rose. The blossom of rose is the indication of love. Poets had spent much of their life to say something on the beauty of the rose, but according to my words, I will only say,

Your cheeks are like the petals of rose,
A rose in my hand are the feeling of your cheeks.
If I view a red rose, It means I imagine your lips,
and so as the whole structure.
I love rose and so as you.


Roses are not only related to love, but they also adds much to the beauty of nature, they can also climbs on fences, walls and enhance the beauty of our houses.


History
It is believed that red rose is nearly 35 million years old. If we study history of Egyptians and Romans we will come to know that they had given the red rose, a place of pride.
Ancient Romans had given high respect to the rose not only for its beauty and fragrance but they had also extracted some medicines from them, it is quite sure that Romans must had cultivated various species of roses to use them in medicines.


Rose has also played an important role in history of England, now rose is a national flower of England after a war fought between the Houses of York and Lancaster because they use red and white flowers in war as synonymous. After this through the effort of Tudor Henry VII and his bride from York gives white and red rose "The Rose of England". It is also the state flower of several states in United States, it is also official flower of Canada.

Peoples are cultivating roses more then hundred of years. Now the Rose breeding has been commercially successful in most countries by the early 1900's. They produce crossbreed species and produce desirable new and different colors of hybrids. China is at highest level for its ever blooming variety of roses.

Colors in Roses
Roses are found in many colors, scarlet, orange, various shades of pink, red, yellow, and white. We can use a rose to cheer someone, to gift and as in Asia and many other countries to decorate a grave of your relative etc. It is believed that different color of roses had different types of feeling for your loved one's e.g.

Red shows extreme love.
Yellow shows zealousness.

Messages by Roses
Similarly roses conveys different messages, the message may be positive or negative depending upon the way of presentation. A flower presented upright signifies positive behavior and if flower or rose is upside down it means "No". Positively and negativity of behavior is also judged with which hand you are presenting a rose, if with right it means "Yes" while with left, means "No".

In Islam, that sweat of the Holy Prophet of Muslims Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) is added in the rose, that reflects the high personality of their Prophet (PBUH) and therefore rose becomes a sign of love and respect for all the Muslims of the world.
We can't neglect the role of roses in the beauty and transparency of nature, according to the nature world is a huge garden decorated with colorful flowers.

At the age of technology and too many choices of presents, people still believe to present rose to their loved one's because they think, it signifies true love and emotions of their heart.
