“Rosebush by Maisie Aletha Smikle
I am a flower
I am a thorn
I am beautiful
I am ugly
I can make you happy
I can make you sad
I can make you smile
I can make you cry
A rosebush I am
With aromatic titillating fragrances
Scented to warm the heart
And stimulate the senses
Like a coat of many colors I come
Adorned with needle sharp thorns
Designed to prick and puncture
For natural therapeutic acupuncture
My thorns the Master carried on His head
That pricked Him sore till He bled
A crown of rosebuds was withheld
A crown of thorns was used instead
Lovely beautiful prickly rosebush
Designed by God the Father
With thorns to make its stalks complete
Without which the rosebush would be incomplete
If one desires a rosebush
Be prepared for the thorns
For a rose is not a rose
Without its prickly thorns
The rosebush endowed
With its attributes intricately woven
Has proven not to deceive
But to intrigue mesmerize and hypnotize”
