The Will of Roses

Stitching a flower
That will never fade
To hang on the wall

Hours spent
Checking charts
And sewing in the patterns

Finally being finished
Finally FINALLY being finished
The rose breathes new life

Standing out how
Proud from the fabric
Energized by newfound interest

Picked up
Put aside
And picked up again

The rose at last
Remembers what it is
And it’s thorns reach out to prick
