You do these shape poems so well, Line. A rose is a rose is a rose--is a rose! Have to add on to Gertrude's Stein's famous line to incorporate your beautiful shape poem. :) gw

No words can say how much I appreciate this poem. Best of all it is real. I will cherish it forever. Even with the thorns not mentioned. You are a special orchid that radiates for all who look your way. A rare flower that only blooms once in a lifetime. To be admired by all not just for the beauty on the outside but also for the beauty within.

Line, Very nice Concrete. No truer love shown, that of a rose. "If the rose puzzled its mind over the question how it grew, it would not have been the miracle that it is." -J. B. Yeats
