A Rose in Concrete
"Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack
in the concrete
Proving nature's laws wrong it learned to walk
without having feet
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams
it learned to breathe fresh air
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else even cared"
-Tupac Shakur, 1999
Featuring a rose quartz gemstone, dusty rose seed beads, and 14k gold-filled accents supporting the rose quartz.
