Rose Greets Me

rose
greets me
from her place
on thorny bush
which protects her from the interlopers
even the deer respect her privacy
staying away
from that bush
a lone
rose

The rose in her own self preservation does not deter creatures of the earth. Well written Caren, xo

The deer eat every flower in my yard except the rose.

The deer have eaten almost all of my flowers. The only ones they have not nibbled up are the new ones on my porch. I expect they will be gone in a day or two.
