    Hello Dagmar

    If only all of us could be so well protected from the world. Great write and I love the format.

    All the very best

    Who cut you from the main plant that now you are in a vase and love is only constricted within that vase?

    That's the question that came to mind when reading your piece.

    Dagmar,

    What a beautiful piece with such a deep meaning I feel. It shows you have been hurt in love and in life and your are slowly getting over it, also that you feel alone. That's just my interpretation.

    Red is my color
    ^^
    This opening line is good. The colour red I feel symbolises love and possibly hurt especially as it is one of the most romantic colours.

    my fragrance is sweet,
    ^^
    This I feel lures the reader in more.

    I feel safe in a vase filled with love.
    ^^
    This is beautifully written. It's like you are trapped because you're n the vase but want to be because you want to feel the love, no matter what happens.

    My thorns keep me from being harmed.
    ^^
    A beautiful ending. The use of thorns to stop you being hurt is very well thought out.
    I like this because it shows you are fragile (not that i like that) but are willing to love again but not without the strength from inside which I feel are the thorns. I also feel that the vase is your protection from being hurt too.

    Lovely piece. Em

    Hi Dagmar

    Short but full of imagery. Red stands for so much, love vibrancy, warmth, war, blood
    fragrance is sweet - softens the colour of red, safe in a vase filled with love brings the imagery back in to a love filled haze and amongst the love warmth and vibrancy thorns a sharp side which will protect.
    A lovely write. Milly x
