Like A Woman
Velvety soft smoothness to the touch of a fingertip.
Sweet and spicey fragrance to the sense of smell.
Beautifully delicate yet an inner strength that only the eye can see.
The stem has thorns that can prick and cut causing bloodshed.
The rose is a favorite among women because the rose is just like a woman.
She can be soft, delicate and strong, but she can prick and cut when she is crossed.
Why else would one flower be so much like a woman?
Men give roses as a way to apologize and show their undying love, but has a man ever stopped to think how much alike the rose and the woman are?
The rose is just like a woman.
