    The Rose

    Alluring and deadly
    she dances with the wind
    Tauntinly and cheerfuly
    towards her you desend
    ...your hand reach out in need
    to touch the beauty she bestows
    ...but the lovelyness that she posses
    is one you can never hold...the rose.

    such beauty and great use of imagery. I loved the first line of the poem too. it really showed that the rose has two sides. I love this poem.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
