-Maddy F.

A rose;

The beautiful prize earned

for passing the thorns.

How many, though,

are willing to try,

and to fight,

to go through a struggle,

to reach their desires?

The prize will not be won

without first proof of deservedness.

Shall you just receive

a reward for nothing?

Life is an uphill battle;

that much is clear,

but when the summit is reached

the view is worth the struggle.

AN- This is the second poem I wrote with this title. The last one needed to be replaced, so here it is! Hope you find this one better! :) (5.8.2012)
