Beauty Of The World Poem by Claire Hunter

Beauty Of The World

Rating: 5.0


The childs hand
Clasps the red rose

She pulls the petals
One by one

Lets them go
Flying on the wind

Free like she
Wishes she could be

Free to go
And free to fly

Never even
A glance at what is behind

But no
She is a prisoner

In her own home
Never to see the world

For all its beauty

Longing for something you can't have, one of the oldest storys of the world, but in a shiny new coat.
