Finish Poem by Charles Bukowski

Perhaps with a summer of patient sun, both roses would bloom. Perhaps transplanting them into a sunnier place would do the trick.

It takes a genius to fit so much meaning into so little words - love it - so true. SG

Charles Bukowski...we know he was rough and tuff...! but deep down inside was a beautiful cleverness that showed through words like these... truly great.

A meaningful and beautiful poem nicely executed.

With all the favorable conditions to help the rose, there's nothing that could impede its growth except misfortune. The picture portrayed in the poem is very close to life. Thanks.

A very short poem, obviously; but it makes the point that few of us fulfill our potential. We should have achieved more than we did.
