9 Ways To Look At A Thorn
1.
A man hacked through the dense, thorny vines
He was frightened
As he stumbled upon
the golden ruin
2.
A little girl joyously scanned the bush if blackberries
As she reached eagerly for one,
she caught a bramble on her little finger
The girl burst into tears
3.
Why must a thorn be bad?
It's the last struggle before victory.
4.
The righteous men wore laurel leaf crowns at the party in merriment
The sinner in the corner wore a crown of thorns
5.
A rose bush is bittersweet
The glorious roses
And the cruel brambles
6.
The wall was not made of stone.
A separated family could hear each other lament from either side
7.
The two roads went to the same place
One was paved and wide
The other was narrow and overtaken by the dense bush
8.
A weary family walked through a bed of thorns
A new family walked to their freedom.
9.**
One does not go through life,
without
a thorn
