Being Pruned Comments

Lovely sentiment, RoseAnn. I wonder if you could have stuck the metaphor of pruning throughout? Or gone back to it at the end? There is a sense of two poems going on here. I was kind of with the lady, pruning in her garden recollecting as she cuts and rose stem, thinking about the necessity of cutting dead growth for renewal and wanted to stick with that image... I became slightly confused as to whether I was empathising with her, or the plant...I loved the sentiment and the reflective pace of it.
