The Greek myth of the rose is one of my favorites.
Chloris, the goddess of the flowers, was in the forest one day when she tripped over a beautiful nymph lying lifeless. Chloris was so overcome by the nymph’s fate that she reached out to the other gods to transform her into a flower.
Aphrodite gave her beauty.
Dionysus, the god of wine, gave her nectar for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
The three Graces—the Charites known as Thalia, Euphrosyne, and Aglaea—gave her charm, joy, and brilliance or splendor.
