The Life of a Rose Bush

Location

The rose bush stands, no limit of bases,

The variety of color brings variety of faces.

The eye for sunlight is always in search,

Whether under a tall willow, or the border of a church.

The rose bush is shallow, weak at the head,

However its skin defects give protection, leaving predators wound red.

The arms of the bush show tremendous support strength,

So much beauty, yet so small in length.

There are many struggles, and life always gives a push,

But the value stays strong, in the Life of a Rose Bush.
