The Future

The Future

A Poem by Laura Lynn Close

The future is full of roses 
with their thorns and fragrant petals.
I love you like a house is loved.
What is there
between the shadow and the soul?
If love is there,
let there be light
there.

The visual imagery represented in the first line is strong.
Roses with thorns and petals represent love with pain which the future holds.

I suppose when roses bloom, there is no greater sight.
So i hope the love blooms too.
