Ross Leese - Two Poems

There is a Rose

in bloom in the
garden.

and on hot summer
days

when death and
destruction

seem to greet
you

from
every television
screen

and newspaper
stand--

it is sometimes just
enough

to notice a rose in
bloom

in a
garden.



It's True, Blue

the act of creation
is similar to anything else
deemed good or great
or godly--

you just have to wait
and wait and wait
for it to come
right

and remember that many
more men have
died through
ambition

as opposed to
idleness.
 



The only thing known about Ross Leese is that he is from the UK and writes poetry.
