Roses are Red

I tried comparing a gem to a flower  
And the only flower that is closest to being a gem is  
A Rose 
 
But, 
 
The thing with roses is that  
You have to crush them to bring out the pleasant scent within 
They have thorns on the outside as a sign that they  
Have been through uncertain days  
But yet are still fighting 
 
And a gem could not be any different 
It comes up through the ground 
Letting all the dirt fall off, 
Like all the gruesome years that never seemed to end 
 
According to Wikipedia there is no universally accepted grading value for gems, 
They are priceless, 
For to put a price in them would mean to degrade their true nature of  
Extreme value.
