Roses of life
have thorns
which are meant
to protect
the sacred,
and yet the sacred
doesn’t need protecting.
Your fragrance
is so
magnificent
your touch is gentle,
subtle.
Walking around,
infused with the
emanations of
soft love.

Before seeing any of the words, my initial feeling upon seeing the photographs was one of sacredness.
Hi EHT, I’m glad you liked this post, and received some good vibes 🙂 xx Ka
Ka.. beautiful images.. And wonderful words.. Without the thorns of life would we know the softness or hold the centre of perfection to our hearts?… All is contained within the Rose.. of Life!… Truly wonderful poem Ka.
