I had a dream last night that I was a bride. I had only one maid standing with me. She looked pretty but had old chipped multicolored finger nail polish on. She was supposed to hand me a single rose and couldn't find it. When she found it she raised it to my nose so I could smell it. It was delightful. Then she handed it to me and the stem was covered in thorns. I loved the smell so much I had to find a way to hold it without it pricking me.

Your rose here is very beautiful. (And the thorns are small!!!)
