Hidden Among the Roses Based On Portrait No 10, Thistle In a Field, By Fidelia Bridges 1875

HIDDEN AMONG THE ROSES 
by Jeanette Jones based on Portrait No 10, 
Thistle in a Field, by Fidelia Bridges 1875


HIDDEN AMONG THE ROSES 

This field full of roses, 
what a vision. 

Rows of primary and secondary 
colors, streaming, at least a mile. 

Among them the  solitary thistle. 

Beauty is the rose, 
its spikes as the thistle, 
that bows to hands that caress 
it with love, along the way. 

In this field of thorny ones, 
though never chosen, 
it receives a lot of love. 

Charming in contentment 
is the thistle among the roses.
