Life's Paradox

As violent roses pose, outer world, in peril,

Freedom roses grow, an inner world, a pearl,

Reality supports human fallacy!!!

There is a lot of depth and wisdom in these three lines, Moses, and I appreciate your comments on our recent exchange. Not many know the situation nor the depth of love I have for my husband, you are very intuitive and thank you for your inspiration. ~Tru~
