I Am Like A Rose

Title:     I Am Like A Rose
Author: D. H. Lawrence [More Titles by Lawrence]

I AM myself at last; now I achieve
My very self. I, with the wonder mellow,
Full of fine warmth, I issue forth in clear
And single me, perfected from my fellow.

Here I am all myself. No rose-bush heaving
Its limpid sap to culmination, has brought
Itself more sheer and naked out of the green
In stark-clear roses, than I to myself am brought.

[The end]
D. H. Lawrence's poem: I Am Like A Rose
