I believe every thorn is a rose

Poem Artwork

I believe every thorn is a rose
in its own way.

Leave it alone.

Let every thorn judge by itself
and not by what others tell
what it actually is.

Do I fear a thorn?
Of course I do.

But I fear still more
the capricious fragrance of a rose.

If I had been born a thorn,
would I still have feared me?

If you had been born a thorn,
would you still have let them
guesstimate your authenticity?

Let every thorn judge by itself.

Leave it alone.

I believe every thorn is a rose.
I believe every rose is a thorn.

to accept something is to accept it as it is complete, you have expressed this beautifully. If mankind could accept things in their completeness there would be peace and joy instead of war and pain. Bobbi
