Black Rose
White, Dave. Blank Canvas. July 8, 2024, Dave White Illustrations.
Beautiful and unique
But also, quite terrifying
Alone in a bed of colorful flowers

Different and feared
None appreciates its beauty.
Many wanted to pick it
But no one dared to reach it
The only one left among its peers
A new generation now surrounds it.
I’ve watched it for quite some time
It is as lonely as me
I picked it up and carried it back home
Decided it to plant it in a pot
I will take care of this rose
So, we’ll no longer be alone
I will appreciate your uniqueness
Because we are as lonely as each other.
