T’wards a rose a finger drifts,
T’wards its thorns the finger shifts;
From its tip the finger bleeds,
Rememb’ring then its cruel misdeeds.

T’wards the ground the droplet falls,
Echoing through its crimson halls,
And there it lands to spawn the seed,
That once, then twice, then thrice will bleed.

T’wards the sky the vine doth yearn,
Though the vine the sky will spurn;
Left to rot, the vine lay crushed,
Its cries of pain gone unhushed.

T’wards the ground the vine did creep,
Gone to find a place to weep,
And there, with tears, it’d come to nurse,
Its bitter wound, its cursed curse.

T’wards the dark the vine did lean,
Best of all to go unseen,
And there, in dark, it stopped to brood,
There to grow, thorned and crude.

T’wards the sky the vine would lash,
Striking like a stormy flash,
Constricting ‘til the sky agreed,
Never again to spurn the weed.

What meaning has a rose when its thorns bear no blood?

I'll be back to this one, Adam.
