The rose Date: Wednesday, 1st June 2005 @ 09:03:28 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: Nixzy Alone in the garden the red rose grows, Planted in the soil away from the hedge, The rose is so pure and full of beauty, The hedge is totally green that stands brightly. The rose shows courage as it starts to grow alone, The hedge has many offshoots that makes it less individual, The rose has a defence system to keep it strong, As the thorns stay sharp and attack if threatened. The hedge is so simple as it grows into a block, The rose has its posture of graceful enlightenment, The rose is gracious, Courageous, And most beautiful.
