Petals

Enchanting is rose..
Her petals pretty
Though with thorns
Left unwilling,
Potted across oceans
In guarded garden
Craves return
But jealousy owned
Away, but still near

Own lily,
Loyal to master
She blooms to please
Rooted firm in his garden
For him her buds…
Promising flowers
Lingering blooms
Her fragrance enchants
Beauty she’s…

Wild orchid
Exotic, untamed
Her petals a delight
Blooms to her will
She sways
To shades and sunlight
Owns none nor
Owned by one
Outgrows her pot Creeps trees unknown
Mystical her blues
Unmatched her hues…

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I–
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
