Black rose deceiving me With fingers that can only feel its texture Within the images deep within the mind Thorns that bleed in the void of darkness Yellow rose of dawn Giving me the warmth of promise In the freshness of such renewal Thorns that bleed within your destiny Pink rose of sweet innocence Dancing on winds of free spirits Youthful exuberance uninhibited Thorns that quickly heal Red rose of your charm Loving memories in everlasting thoughts Caresses of intermingling needs Thorns of an everlasting relationship White rose of purity Trusting words without hate Seeking the whispers of humanities soul Thorns that have cried in the needs of others Black rose seeing the light The maturity to withstand abuse To stand proud in its own shadow Thorns that protect its own identity Black rose deceiving me What color are you tonight In the darkest part of my mind D.Lester Young (08/22/02) Tuscaloosa, AL Copyright © D.Lester Young (White Eagle poetry) |

I really like this poem. It's very descriptive. And it's about "roses".  What more could you ask for? |

You've made the roses' thorns such a part of this, as is life... well done, Sir |
