IF LIFE IS A GARDEN, THEN I AM A ROSE
WITH LEAVES FOR MY FINGERS
AND ROOTS FOR MY TOES
EACH PETAL SO SOFT, A STRAND OF MY HAIR
A DELICATE PILLOW
TO BE HANDLED WITH CARE
TOUCH ME WITH LOVE, AND MY COLORS WILL SING
BUT BEWARE YOUR INTENTIONS
FOR MY THORNS WILL STING
WAKE EACH DAY TO THE SUN IN THE SKY
DEW DROPS ON MY FACE
LIKE TEARS IN MY EYE

Nice analogy.

  Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.
