The Cactus and the Rose: Poetry and Prose

Love isn't always smooth, it can be prickly, needle you if you mishandle it. The cactus and the rose learned their lessons in the harshest environments. They learned to thrive with their hearts in tow. They learn to love, and it wasn't always easy. They learn uprooting from a bad situation isn't always a big loss.

These 114 poems and prose reveals the uneven terrain of love, heartbreak, and loss. This book contains some explicit language.
