anxiety v. serenity

lustrous petals glow
armored in temptation’s thorns  
deeply scarring hands
Rose

  1. The beauty of the rose protected with the thorns … and those thorns certainly provide “a bite” to the unprotected hands and arms. Very nice!

  2. Wonderful. As Becca says roses protected by her thorns that’s all about live too. Live is great but has also it’s thorns. Nicely crafted haiku.

  3. That’s thoughtful and beautiful.. I am happy that you wrote the best combo rose and throne..

    Someone is Special
