Hi there! Please enjoy this poem that I’ve written this evening. There are thistles beside the path, Adorning the grove, Crowning the grass with tenacious thorns, proudly Aligned. Sharp pinpricks, Warning travelers, do not Enter here, this sacred place; This space is reserved only for woodland kings; And queens. Wistful green grass gazes back longingly … More Thistle Grove: A Poem
