Gertrude Stein’s “a rose is a rose is a rose”…remember that? It is from a 1913 poem named “Sacred Emily”, to me a rather strange long poem, but I am not GS! I know as a child we read many books and certain poem lines stick with you. However I believe the line is true, I see a beautiful rose and appreciate its beauty and scent. The term rosy as in rosy cheeks is definitely an interpretation I love. Rose colored glasses seems to me to be a sad meaning. What do you think?
