A beautiful wish for life. I liked the comparison of the rose to grief, life, death, pain and sorrow. Most only see the rose as love. This one touched me as I read some of my own history throughout. Smiles to you mirror man Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. |

great read. I, too liked how you brought out the other, darker side of such a beautiful flower. The rose is powerful in many symbolic ways and you captured this one nicely. With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. |

The rose, Like the cactus flower, protects herself with thorns. We however, impale ourselves, on their beauty. Very good, man. I loved it. "The poet is the priest of the invisible." |

How did I miss this beautiful poem Kathleen Blake "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey." Laurie Lee [This message has been edited by Irish Rose (edited 03-29-2001).] |

with every rose there comes a thorn and every night rasies new dawn. Loved your poem and the images it presented. write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

Beautiful piece.. enjoyed the read. --Marie It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. |
