Such a fragile little flower Growing more beautiful by the hour Even in a land of sin its presence shall not cower Bearing pain like the thorns of a rose It plays on the emotions to demonstrate its power But back to a soiled hell is goes Crushed and trampled by it’s foes Pushed deeper and deeper by each of the blows This Punic victory leaving there mouths sour The wound left upon the innocent finally shows alright I don't really know what to call this cuz I don't really know if it's symbolic or not. Like I've said alot of my poems truly are writing themselves..I'm just holding the pen. >¶Øʆ< |

The rhyme scheme was very interesting. VERY interesting. And the poem itself... well it could be many things. It all depends on how literally it was to be taken. Care to help us out a bit? ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

"Even in a land of sin its presence shall not cower" This is beautiful. I love the analogy used. Very nice work --Marie I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am. |

I thought this was very very well done. I liked the scheme and the whole theme of it all. very well done! I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

Well the majority of my stuff is symbolic unless it has to do with blood then it's either/or. I seriously don't know what it's about the words just sometimes comes to me. And as for the rhyming scheme...I get bored easily...that is the result. Anyways thanx for the replies >¶Øʆ< |

I think it is one of your best, and personally it is going into my library. As for a title, I don't know. Maybe "Petals of a Stronger Time". I have no clue. In my opinion, it is useless to ask others to name your stuff because frankly, only you know what any of it means. "The heart can think of no devotion |
