Poem -
If there be a white rose
If there be a roseĀ
mayhap it be white
growing lone in this strange
place
Of horror and fright
If there be a rose
it be hidden in thornsĀ
for these years are mad
brambles
All wailing ... no song ...
no sunlight no ending no comfort
All stark
if there be a white rose then
This place be too dark
to ever find it,
M

Hey you... Thankyou X
Your words like always stand bold on the page like I'm living a Deja vu and the words are organised just as they were always meant to beĀ
Aw thankyou R x
This highlights in my opinion where poetry has it over other forms of writing. Such words as I see here come from a poetic heart and soul. They express emotion and feeling so much better than prose. And as I read your words I can definitely feel, as a fellow poet, from where these emotions emanate. I like the repeated refrain ofĀ "if there be ...." and the sudden dramatic ending.Ā
Hello Bernie!!! Fabulous to see you back!!!Ā Thankyou for this beautiful comment my friend... and I agree, poetry or creative writing can be an unique way to write about anything whilst saying nothing .. hugs to you x
