I'm a caregiver and an artist. I received high honors in creative writing, fine arts, and sculpture at Montserrat College of Art.

A Single Rose

a single rose, I bring to you.

a single rose, to show I'm true.

a single rose, so you know I care.

now please just drop your underwear.

a single rose, with loves intent.

a single rose, it's not the rent.

a single rose, how sweet it smells.

until your wife finds out, and yells.

a single rose, I gave to her.

a single rose, it's all a blur.

a single rose, and now I'm dead.

my wife has cut off, my little head.

A Single Rose

It is always good to have a little humour in our day. I read this expecting a love poem but got more than I bargained for. Funny.
