The Only Rose There Is
Not
what were roses like
when you could touch
them, Great-Great-Great-
Great-Great-Great-Great-
Grandmother,
but
the week-in-the-vase
rose on the table now,
heavy-headed, a girl
with a bonnet for a face
sewn to a blanket.

I agree with Maureen on the second stanza, Hannah. Great work here!
Beautiful Hannah.
