This is a poem that I wrote sometime ago that was posted here about a year ago. Seeing as how new people join every day I will repost it for them. I hope you like it.

I call it "the rose":

I hold a rose up to my chest
It's plain for you to see
You think it's pretty and yes it is
But it has yet to be

The rose has a secret
That I only hold the key
Just ask the right question
And I'll gladly turn the key

The rose has yet to open
As yet my love for thee
Open your heart and let me in
For here I'll always be.

Very nice poem indeed! The rose is about to open I think!

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.
