James Fraser Poet Rhyme

The Lost Rose and the Barb

The day i met her
My mind was blown
For in my heart
In pumping growing

She made me laugh
And sometimes we cried
When it all went wrong
We always tried

It's been many years
More downs than ups
She's no longer my kitten
I'm no longer her pup

The girl i met
All those years ago
Has disappeared
No more after glow

We are no longer
The beautiful garb
To me she is now
The Lost Rose and the Barb

Linda-Marie Sweetheart October 23, 2009 at 4:04 PM thankxxx James for compliments conveyed on my Butterfly poem.. I just might write a new poem including all the things u listed in your comment .. .. ... of course, it will be a Fantasy poem... The Lost Rose and the Barb is a wonderful verse of insight and romance found and lost ... but the lesson ... never give up... everything happens for a reason.. maybe for u to share this lovely poem with all of us... we feel for u James...

Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen October 18, 2009 at 5:12 AM Sad, James. Counseling, prayer, and maybe the Mormon church, if any, could help revive the fragrance to your rose. God bless you and all who have felt the pain of lost love... even me. (Off to church, now.) Lovingly, Dane
