A Rose

a rose between life's thorns you are a fragrance of morn that tarries on breezes blossom of friendship that enfolds the beauty of blush in smiles as i wake the petals of soft touch through words you are ...my cherished rose

Wow Sandra, I am mesmerized by your enormous talent - your poems I hope will be recorded for many, many generations in the future to read, they will surely be as enthralled by them, as are we all today on soup! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Wow thank you so much Jennifer your words touched me... not many in my circle know I write. My children do, my oldest made me so a speech in his class for poetry so he could get extra credit one year. His teacher was a coach that road my bus a lot so she knew.! My kids have no idea how many poems I even have to date or where I write... perhaps one day I will get them out there better ... hugs my friend :)

Ah, so lovely! A rose shooting up through the thorns... So much better than weeds breaking through cracks in sidewalks... ~ Not exactly 20/20 visioned in Chicago (LOL). Warmest wishes, Sandy. ~ Gershon
