Poem: Rose Garden
by Liam
In that far off garden
God whispered to a rose
Its waking petals primed to life
Songs of colour to behold
Rarest fairest handsome
Perfume dancing from the bud
A tear too, fell that morning
Blessed, from Gods cheek into the mud
The rose in wonder answered;
“My flower of perfection, is here for all to see,
God gave me thorn as well, this will set you free.”
The pain we some times suffer
The fear I some times fight
Gods tear is the reminder of
This love to never flout
A gift to every garden green
The rose’s red is always seen
The hidden thorn is always mean.
