A rose is a rose, No matter where it grows. Some saw thorns, Beauty some chose. Criticized by some, Valued by loads; People's opinions, You can't change them by force. Perfection is desired, Even if it's freestyle prose! Our lives might be cumbersome, Let's accept the challenges they pose; There's a bit of stardust in us all, No matter hellish situations might come how close, because, *a rose is a rose.
