A Prayer

It hurts if canker cuts a rose
Or the moon behind  cloud's kerchief goes'
We are that sensitive.
Therefore o God why give
Any pretty girl a runny nose?

Quite the combination. It's funny how people are; the beauty and the beast. They parallel each other and act as a checks and balance. Nicely done.
