Through The Struggle

A cluster of roses

Clinging tight to the vine

Regretful the thorns

Fractured, yet they survive

Petals soft and supple

Crushed under the weight

A velvety crumble

Pressed hard by the gate

The sweet fragrant lingers

Despite its demise

It wafts and it whispers

Floating into the sky

Affirming that beauty

Is deeply engrained

Fulfilling her duty

Saving those needing saved

Reserving the thorn

For another day

Regrowth and-reborn

Where the wild things play

Beauty beyond sight

And strength like no other

Every creature takes flight

Nurtured well by their mother

Nature aids life’s survival

Giving all that it needs

By daily providing

And planting the seeds
