Things changed this year, I suppose.

December 24th, 2007. Snowing in Utah.
Can't help but look back on the year.

The Rose is Rose,

and was always a Rose

But the theory now goes

That the apple's a Rose

and the pear is, and so's

The plum I suppose.

The dear only knows

What will next prove a Rose.

You, of course, are a Rose-

But were always a Rose.

Robert Frost
