Like A Rose Poem by Lloyd Savage

Like A Rose



Like a rose
Upon a broken bough
Struggling just to live;
So are the lives
Of some I've known
Who knew just how the give.

Oh, what a little love can do,
For e'vn the rose somehow,
Would grow thereon,
New types of wood;
And mend each broken bough! !

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The idea for this one came when I saw a rose bent over on its stem, yet the next day it had unexplainably perked up and was beautiful!
COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Thomas Vaughan Jones 04 April 2014

A little pocket allegory between a broken rose and suffering people. The lines are somewhat staggered, but no matter. Some quality endrhymes thrown in for good measure make for a PH jewel. This line is a tad ambiguous and needs attention. Otherwise nicely written. Who knew just how the give.
