Rose's Thorns - a Response To Belle Bellevue's 'Thorn Rose'

Rose's thorns scare admirers away There's not much a poor flower can say Her skin is so prickly It makes suitors sickly So she shows them her petals ~ Come play!

Hello Gershon ... if a rose thorn puts anyone off the petals and aroma; try picking the fruit on a prickly pear - thank you Gershon - Lindsay

I think I'll let someone else try that prickly pear first, if you don't mind, Lindsay. :) gw

Brilliant… When Rose puts her soft petals on display - Admirers come by every single day - To caress her fine curves - Boy, have they got a nerve - One shot from her thorn bot, they're in decay… Belle
