A Rose Wafted 

A rose wafted amongst 

the frozen fields, 

dancing with the breeze.  

It had sprung

from icy, time-frozen lands.

A miracle, in a godforsaken 

place, where all stood at a still. 

And a most peculiar sight it had been, 

mortals travelled across all seven seas, 

just to catch a glimpse. 

Be it as it may, they became amaurotic  

towards its elegance. 

The rose had become a pariah, 

something that was scorned. 

So, is life. 

Even a beauty amongst uglies, 

will be mocked for being an 

anomaly.
