Badly gilded rose

Posted by Picasa




Do you still seek
a bright repose
that your young heart missed, 

And did they paint
your petals false
to guild your nature
from their own designs?

  1. This is my poem. I'm claiming it and taking it home with me.

  2. Well, I think the little verse needs one or two more stanzas to resolve the questions. And the only person that can do that is Juliana. Yes?

  3. Dear Willow, its a fine and humane thing you do, and if you link spirits with Juliana you could negotiate a fine conclusion to the poor orphaned thing. Probably.

    I just noticed you found my humble post before I had added my own comment. Thanks Willow and Juliana - why, it's almost like living among people, chatting to you two, without all the aggravation.

  5. I'm going to search the archives Mr Monkey. Answers are certainly what we all want. What a pity there are none for so many 'questions' that people insist on asking.

    OK, I found one, may take me a while to post it, but I will be expecting a question from you.

  6. Oh my goodness! I am blushing and very flattered.

    Thank you, it is such a lovely and thoughtful gesture.
