The Black Rose Poem by RIC BASTASA

The Black Rose



from a crevice of a rock
a black rose grows

it blooms on dark dreams
its petals are the ones that you do not ordinarily
see in the morning

the sun sometimes pays attention
to its being unusual
not being just any rose in the garden


it gives it more light hoping that someday
it may become white

the black rose is faithful
until it wilted

the dews miss it: the black rose is true
to its nature.
