In the prickliest places
Where the sun blazes hot
And the rain rarely stops
Lays a possible promise
For nectar
And hope.

Sometimes spikes
May well mean
You best keep your
Distance.
However,
If you take the time
To understand
That prickly often means
Protective,
You may find
Some thorny people
Can with kind acceptance
And a bit of patience
Come to share
Sweet fruit.
