This is a poem that has been passed down from my family it has great meaning to my family.


Death by a Rose

There once lived a deadly rose
An ordinary rose just like the ones you know
But what made this rose different wasn't the color
It wasn't the texture
It was a rose that killed all that touched it

But the weird thing is it will only kill those who have been bad
Like maybe your mom or you dad
So remember a little story that will make your mind steady
It was about a rose that is deadly

I honestly think that it's true. It wasn't meant as an insult. It's Along the lines of breaking a mirror and opening an umbrella in the house. I am entitled to my opinion.


Edit:There is nothing wrong with the Poem

Re: Read this poem

I understand the reasons now and I do apologize for any unintended slighting of the poem.

Re: Read this poem

Thnxs man but its not me you have to say sorry to its my sister so when she gets on say sorry to her

Re: Read this poem

That was for your sister
I understand now that it holds special meaning to her and that ANY criticism of it would be seen as an affront to her memories. I however wasn't criticizing it. Many poems and fables were written with the intent to keep people out of trouble. Without the full context that you later provided me. I saw this poem to be like the classic fables. I would take that as more of a compliment than an insult.

I had no ill intent in making my comment.
I would like to say that sharing such a special poem on a public forum was a very brave thing to do.

Re: Read this poem

the thing is, when you put any kind of poem/artwork on a forum people will read it and comment although I have yet to come across anyone here who has blasted another person's work. If there is something you post that is a sensitive subject then perhaps consider whether you are prepared to have people's interpretations and opinions added to it.

Poetry is very personal - but no one here would intentionally make light or criticise it.

Re: Read this poem

Well, a great poem indeed, it strikes me as a poem of religous belief, those who sin die at its touch, espeacialy this part

But the weird thing is it will only kill those who have been bad
Like maybe your mom or you dad

well anyway rep for the poem.
