One day, a little girl named Amy went for a walk. She saw a pretty rose in a garden. The rose was red and smelled nice. Amy wanted to become friends with the rose. She said, "Hi, Rose! Can we be friends?"
The rose said, "Yes, we can be friends, Amy." So, they played together every day. They had fun in the sun, and when it was cool, they would sit and talk.
One day, it rained very hard. Amy couldn't go outside to see the rose. She was sad and missed her friend. The rain didn't stop for many days.
When the rain stopped, Amy went to see the rose. But the rose was not there. It had become all brown and broken. Amy cried and said, "I miss you, Rose."
Amy learned that sometimes, things don't last forever. She was sad, but she knew she would always remember her friend, the rose.
