Trapped In A Rose Garden Poem by Miss Grace

Trapped In A Rose Garden

Rating: 4.5


I entered a garden to save myself
I thought it was a pretty place
I was saved from the war outside
I saw flowers growing with their own pace

The flowers growing there
Were my favorite one
They were roses
Now the place I started to own

I enjoyed my stay there
I was happy for a while
But later I realized
I had walked down a wrong aisle

The place I thought was a garden
Turned out to be a dangerous maze
Now when I tried to run away
Going out was not an easy case

Now only I realised
A rose had thorn
Now my mistake I realised
Of what I had done

The shook was too much
Now I couldn't even move
The thorns started to grow around me
Them I couldn't remove

The pain at the beginning was too much
I used to weep silent tears
After a while I got used to it
Now it is not one of my fears

I was now safe and sound from reality
But price was something that can't be undone
With this I complete my story
About I was trapped in a rose garden.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Rose garden here means mind. Beginning we will enjoy remaining there, but once we explore further we at last always get stuck. It would be impossible to get out. I am still waiting in the rose garden. Every beautiful thing comes with a price.

Mind as a rose garden is an interesting concept. How the mind works in spite of roses and thorns is amazing.

The metaphor of rose garden works well, because mind has its own ways to haunt our life, never letting us free from its clutches. The flowers and fragrance may entice us into the garden, but thorns galore would imprison in no time.
