The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Rosies

Ring-a-ring o' roses,
I don’t want one of thoses -
they bring me lots of sneezes
instead of scented breezes.

And yes, they are so thornéd,
as bad as rhino’s hornéd,
for though they are so pretty,
they’re best kept in this ditty!
