This poetic metaphor has a big value and special indirect meanings, with an unprecedented rhetorical poetic style, only can be written by a professional poet like Rose

We can say Mimosa is a shy plant. Like a shy village girl, it shrinks at touch. That's why it is known by another name.... Touch- me- not! This shyness or humility is at once its weakness and strength. It can stay untouched by moths and caterpillars that come to eat away the leaves. A lovely Haiku on one of the escape mechanisms found among the lower species! 10+

Three neat and well written lines to demonstrate a great poetess at the peak of her powers. And long shall Rose Marie reign to entertain and captivate us all. 10++ and take care good Rose Marie. And stay Blessed.

And so are We So strong and so weak, So easily bent. But with come back Strength. A subjugating and grandiose philosophical truth, in three delicately soft but uinforgettable verses. Precious!
