LIFE AIN’T BEEN JUST A BED OF ROSES!

Life ain’t been just a bed of roses!

A rose … a rose.. is filled with thorns –

pricking you – leaving pain, scares, hurt, and a life torn

Pain from birth –

soon after arriving on earth

Scares from rejection,

abuse, and no protection

Hurt from relationships gone astray

A torn life that makes you want to go away

LIFE ain’t been just a bed of roses. Neither has it been just a bed of thorns

Life is filled with sunshine and rain

Life is filled with loss and gain

Life is filled with beauty that sometimes die

Life is filled with pain that makes you cry

Life grants you mercy that stops theft of joy

Life graces you with strength to overcome life’s evil ploy

Life creates determination that gives you power

Life experiences give a voice that speaks louder.

Life bring forth roses- combined with thorns

Through seeds, nourishing, and God’s expansion of healing for a life torn
