    An unadorned gal having no daydream of own,
    Family said sound of this or that vocation;
    To them never she said no;
    And to their bidding give a nod.

    She relishes the versatility in her pen;
    But there’s no rose without a thorn.
    The world is green with envy to her fate;
    To which her kindness is the bold riposte.

    She nabs the masses owning hate;
    Then inaugurate the hidden snakes.
    While quashing stones on the struggle bus;
    Gold of her life hugged the Gal.

    Thank you for sharing your poem with me.  I very much like “there’s no rose without a thorn” – it gives us something meaningful in the way of an image that we can relate to.  There are a number of grammatical missteps but, a bit of editing could correct that.  I will admit there are some lines I simply don’t understand and that may simply be a translation issue.  In any event, you have definitely captured a mood in your poem and that’s a big part of what poetry is all about.  – Susan
