Description
"Wild Pink Rose" by Debbie Oppermann. In ancient times the wild rose was considered sacred. The Greeks and the Romans used the wild rose as the crowning ornament of their feasts. In the days of troubadours, rose and nightingale were united in songs addressed to "Fair Women." This is perhaps the origin of the use of the rose to symbolize love. Wild rose means Love, Passion or Simplicity. Image taken at the Key River Ontario Canada.
