Naked, Ugly, and Perfect


Only the most gifted minds
can look at the naked ugly truth
and see the perfection
living there

like flowers
growing
in the
compost

and realize
without the compost
the flowers would not
be as magnificent

    You are a very deep thinker. I agree with the words of your poem completely, for love makes everything grow and without it the world wouldn't stop turning, but life would be as dull as hell!

    I shall read more of your poetry, you sound interesting.

    Wow.. that is wonderful! So true too! That refining the compost sometimes brings does make the flower more magnificant doesnt it? If it doesn't destroy them that is.

    Love this...

    Yea I agree, have to put up with the shi* of the ones you love. That takes brilliance. Sometimes though, you just realize, you have to do what you have to do, and try to accept...or watch your love turn into weeds..

    Love ya
