The Florist’s Touch

The blush pink roses

freshly trimmed

are stripped of their thorns

so that the only thing you see is

-

soft

beautiful

pleasant

 -

But what if we’re just like them,

fooling the one that holds us

Because, we did have thorns

But after self-help books,

a few therapy sessions

and a glass of wine

or two

we lose our thorns and blossom

into who we’ve wanted to be all along

 -

Soft.

Beautiful.

Pleasant.
