"Every Rose has it's Thorn" terrific track by the American band "Poison" <*> Your fine Haiku so reminded me of it Robert, and the words ring so true. I love it :)

A wonderfully written Haiku Robert. Maybe that is why the thorns are there, to let someone know how much you love them. I enjoyed the read~ Caryl

This is excellent Robert. Never thought of it that way before. The rose is the Love Flower and it's covered with thorns. "No love is without pain". From one to seven I give it a 10 God Bless, JB
