Soliloquy for a Rose


Tangled among the prickly stems and ever fragrant leaves,
A rose dispelled the misty morn,
and left it's sweetened scent with me.
Eglantine, of a sunrise hue; ne'er could softer petals glow.
Spirits bloom; quell earthly fears,
Sweetbrier- oh how your goodness shows!

Oft we wander lonely roads - left of right, or inbetween;
In the darkness comes the light -
obsidian to tourmaline.
Oft we wonder, where's the answer?
Quantum ... God creates the prose.
Unforsaken, with his promise, you his servant, sent the rose ...
