What Flower am I?~For Penni D. & Thee

Many metaphors can I inspire;

Ying & Yang, the sweet pain of desire,

No pain no gain, success requires sweat,

A painter's best through sacrifice 'smet.

~

Heaven and Hell are connected.

Genes are not easily corrected.

Onto a beautiful life rain must fall.

So, now, can you guess my name from this all?

I'm stumped on this one. Maybe a rose?
Marge H. Feb 24, 2009, 9:49pm EST
I'm guessing a rose too.
Marge H. Feb 24, 2009, 9:50pm EST
Another beautiful riddle/poem.
Sherrie H. Feb 24, 2009, 10:18pm EST
Bittersweet?
Sherrie H. Feb 24, 2009, 10:19pm EST
This is the best one yet. A great poem irrespective of the riddle.
Kay M. Feb 24, 2009, 10:56pm EST
I think Sherrie's guess is right
Steph-in-NE ..... Feb 25, 2009, 4:01am EST

Bleeding hearts?

An excellent riddle, Curt ... you have me stumped!
Curt L. Feb 25, 2009, 11:09am EST
You are clever, my friends!
The rose it is!
Sherrie H. Feb 25, 2009, 1:50pm EST
You fooled me with this one. Down to 3 / 4. :-(

Still love the poem though!

Rose

I love the use of ying and the yang. That made the choice of a rose easier because the beauty comes with the thorns.
Marge H. Feb 26, 2009, 4:39pm EST
Yay! I got one right. :)
Alison H. Feb 27, 2009, 4:35am EST
A rose did pop to mind....beautiful, Curt!
Mariana T. Feb 27, 2009, 12:58pm EST
I got it - yes, I thought of the rose, Curt - you're wonderful! Salud
Patti M. Mar 14, 2009, 2:02pm EDT
Wow you got me on this one.
