Touched by nature’s beauty Yet endowed by torn of pain The sirens of the garden Which entice each year again |

Rick, it could be that you have a typo, but "torn" works well in this, just as "thorn" would...in fact, you probably planned it that way, yes? |

Rick, once again, you have captured so much in such few words....both beauty as well as pain. Roses are my favorite flowers...yellow ones being my favorite color (actually they're a yellow with pink, called "Peace Roses"). Thanks for sharing. Love makes the world go 'round (unkown) |

(smiles) Oh Rick, this is soooooooo precious, sweet friend, know that after each rose dies the rose hasn't really and is only hibernating in the bulb in the ground where it will rise yet again to the siren song of springs harbinger! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is gorgeous, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rick, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Sorry everyone, torn is thorn, the h must have jumped off the page somewhere. Thanks for that Sunshine. WhiteRose, thanks for the reply, I love the roses as well, I look out at them from my computer, all growing over the arbor, just beautiful, but as you say, darn them thorns. Secretlife, nice to hear from you, much appreciated. Sunshine, I had read it a few times and missed the typo, I am glad you did not, thanks for the reply, nice to hear from you. Garysgirl, once again thank you for this reply, you encourage me to keep sharing my work, which I do with joy. Much appreciated. Dear Sue, a lovely time of the year, all our roses are about to bloom, a few are out and look wonderful in their coat of colour. Thanks for the reply, much enjoyed. Sincerely Rick Please all have a wonderful week. |
