Roses

A Rose

I love roses. The problem is, they have thorns.
One day I was thinking of how a rose's thorns can hurt,
but a rose is still a beautiful flower,
and I also thought of how life can hurt but also is still great.
People don't hesitate to pick a rose
despite the fact that the thorns can prick them,
just as they should not be afraid to take risks
because they might be hurt.
A Rose
by Elizabeth
A lovely rose with petals softA scent so sweet and lightSo beautiful a flowerWith colors shining bright.But something not so savoryAbout the fragrant rose -The thorns, so sharp upon the stem,That sharpen as it grows.Yet still lovely is the flowerDespite the thorns that prickJust as life and love are sweetThey too have thorns that stick.But do not fear to live or love,Life's not exempt from pain -So pick a rose, you may get hurt,But you will also gain!
