Wild Rose

In the proper garden east of France
Wild rose arose in the edge of hedge
She is a fresh, fragrance of youth,
Flower of beauty, color of truth

Oh my, the gardener sighed, a rose arose in the edge of hedge
What a disgrace, he groaned in rage
What will they say, what will they do
When they find out about her bloom

He was a gardener never the less, a proper man who stands no mess
So pick the trimmer he did in haste and trimmed off her flower to tidiness
All of her radiance, fragrance abound, petals of beauty, magnificence
He did this often when she would plume tidy her up sheer of her bloom

The gardener grew wrinkly, pale and old strength has left him as did resolve
The hedge keeps growing wild and thick but now and then within its mass
Within the shrub, thick ghastly branch, within the wall of lifeless bark
The rose arises once again because she must that's what she does

She can't remember who she is, but a faint glimpse of what once was
All of her radiance, fragrance of youth, exquisite wonder, colors of truth
Hence, the Wild rose in bloom in the edge of hedge will once again dance
in not so proper garden, in the east of France.


I hope you like it, :icon_female:

Very beautiful, Alexia.  I sometimes wish I could write.

Lovely sweetie, just... lovely, and I can see you growing, refusing to die from within that hedge...

I had to read it between the wonderful smile you created on my face, and the tears beginning to well...

Keep it up love, Evie

Very nicely done, Alexia.

Coincidentally, I was at your web site this afternoon and wished to contact you after reading your progress report.  But there seems to be no way to do so.

If you like, please write to me at khenderson@kentraco.com

NOTE TO ALEXIA:

I can't send personal messages or access your email address.  I guess I don't have enough site activity yet to get that privilege.  And I can't modify my profile to show my blog address.  So I have no way to respond.
