The Rose's Thorn

To Marcy Howard

The beauty of a bright red rose;lives inside the mind,
Though a heart gives it life;nature’s grand design,
A bright red rose holds memory;of beginnings or of an end,
Lost inside a memories grasp;and the past that we defend.
 
 
While the rose has it’s aroma;and can inspire bright memories,
The thorns always prove their point;and spoil love’s reverie,
In this rose’s eternal beauty;love lives yet sometimes dies,
Living in our hearts and minds;alive inside your eyes.
 
Do we concentrate on the beauty;overlook the thorn,
Or believe the beauty just a mask;a lie that we have worn,
The rose can never be posessed;but the beauty we can hold,
Regardless of the present facade;or the emotion that seems sold.
 
I hold a rose in my hand;its significance will live on,
Though a thorn reminds me well;of a love that’s never gone,
And as the days slowly pass;and the trail is well worn,
It lives inside a heart now pierced; by a rose’s thorn!!!
       It will not die!!!

As we wander through this life, And ponder things we’ve found, Does your heart beat for love, Or does your mind push it around, Can our hearts lead us in circles,

Love

Real love once It’s found, Can live but never die, It lives inside, heart and mind, And lives inside your eyes, When thought of, you feel better,
