Thorns

Thorns

 

My Old Man was cursed to growing thorns

I now raise them well, it is easy

The thorns mostly grow on their own

Maybe I help a bit

 

Occasionally the thorns produce a rose.

I wonder about the rose, sometimes.

The rose is beautiful. How do I grow a rose?

I produce the thorns

 

The New Man was cursed to wear the thorns

The crown I should wear

I wonder about the crown of thorns, sometimes.

I produce the thorns
