Flawlessly Flawed

The rose never complains about the thorns For it knows they are there to protect it For it knows it is precious The wild flower never complains about the ruins on which it has grown For it knows only it can bloom In places no other flower can grow Why do you complain about your imperfections then ? Why do you not embrace your flaws ? Believe me they are there for a reason Believe me they are meant to be yours

Back again, Ayesha,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
