Thorned Rose
He never told me to my face
He spoke behind my back
He always agreed with a smile
That lied with every pact
A rose with thorns
Hallow with horns
O’ how the man could act
An enemy will lull you
Like a friend before attack

http://grafxpress.blogspot.com/This blog is dedicated to offering daily verse--a thought to contemplate throughout the day and enrich the inner life. Poetry reaches into the heart in ineffable ways. Similar to music which speaks below the horizon of conscious thought, poetry represents the first shards of dawning. The splintered light that cracks the heavens to illuminate reality. Rhythm, rhyme, and reason dancing. Words, whispers, and wonderment flashing. Images, impression, and intellect converging. Such is the language of enlightened prose, and the oracle through which it pollinates the mind.
