Rose buds sprouting out
thorns erect like body guards
try to save them of
insecty bombards
but the tiny creatures attack and attack
little holes appear
on petals and leaves
thorns keep watching
can't even pierce
insects irritate
tease and fly
try to touch the heights of sky
bud becomes flower
blooms n blooms
for weeks together
attracts everyone
then petals fall down
and flower is gone
still standing erect, the guard thorn
to wait for another bud to sprout
see bud flower and flower fall out!
LIFE GOES ON AT ITS OWN PACE AND IN ITS OWN INBRON MANNER!
