Bare and naked to the world in the winter, But bright and beautiful, Showing off its petals in the summer Is the rose in my garden. Blossoms all over In such gorgeous colors. Sparkling with the morning dew Such a sweet sight to the eyes And such softness to the touch are its petals. Standing up to the coldest winds And freezing snows, As well as drowning rains And the sun's buring rays, But never once faltering to show off its beauty. With a wall of thorns lining the stems up and down Protect it from potential harms. Starting out as something so small Without much attention paid to it, But growing through the seasons To become something craved and demanded attention With its regal beauty. Oh how I wish I could be like the rose With such undying beauty And protecting ways. |

Great work I really enjoyed the read  Andrew "Here we are again finding ourselves at the end Of the wrong stick I guess it's far too late I'm building up the barricades In my head" -My Vitriol |

I liked this one. A very good write.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

don't we all wish we could be like that. Lovely comparison (oh geeze I'm sounding like my grandma)! I like it a lot! Rhonda  "Amy, can you PLEASE come to Spain with us so that we have someone to keep Rhonda calm?" - Mr. Ardiel *insert hysterical laughter from me here* |

Your imagery in this is excellent. The description of the rose and the comparison to yourself was very well done. Good on you and keep them coming. ~AF~ Just because I hear voices doesn't mean I'm crazy...SHUT UP IN THERE!!! |
