Silent Bloom

Kaz

She seeks beauty 

in the light,

yet her shadow 

draws her 

to a rose in 

silent bloom–

one touch,

now aware of 

its sharp thorns.

            Yes, the rose isn't stupid, it knows how to protect its beauty, by surrounding its self with thorns.

            Beauty and danger often live side by side…
