The force of her love sealed the door securely. Nothing could get through. Not even a ramming bear. But the bear was persistent, and bounced off the door several more times. Then, almost by accident, the bear found the edge of the spell and crashed through the wall next to the door. "Bear! Bear", screamed the maid as she went running away through the Mansion. The bear rampaged through the Mansion, sending the Jim O'Leary's scurrying in every direction. This was the Jim O'Leary Mansion and always had been for many generations of Jim O'Leary's.

Most have seen a Rose, held it, and deeply inhaled its fragrance- though the fragrance causes headaches for some. But just how familiar are we with the Rose? How intimate are we with it? In this book, I'll explore the various parts of the Rose in more detail without getting technical. Many things in this book you'll already be familiar with. I hope you enjoy the memories. If you're looking to give an intimate gift like a Rose, perhaps it will make it a more special gift if you're more intimate with it. Every species has their own language. This is the Word of the Rose. I hope you read it with a Rosy disposition.
